        Was this working before on 2.1.1 and broke with that snapshot? Or has it never worked for you on 2.1.1?

          Hi Jimp

          Seeing the RRD Graphs, i lost ppp Thursday night (snapshot  6 February). I remember using 31 Jan, 4 Feb, 6 Feb and 7 Feb snaps. Now i have the stable 2.1

          My Setup:

          • MB: Asrock wolfdale1333-d667 http://www.asrock.com/mb/intel/wolfdale1333-d667/
          • Cpu: Celeron(R) CPU E1200
          • DDR2 2GB dual channel team elite.
          • Sata to CF adapter (Marvel chipset )
          • Networks -  intel dual GB 1000 Pt and huawei e392-u12 (locked to  LTE)

          Edit:

          • pfSense-2.1.1-PRERELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd_vga-upgrade-20140205-1409.img.gz (edit 2: ppp doesn't work i have to do a ln -s /usr/local/sbin/mpd.script /var/etc/mpd.script to solve the problem ).
          • pfSense-2.1.1-PRERELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd_vga-upgrade-20140204-2041.img.gz (need patch)
          • pfSense-2.1.1-PRERELEASE-1g-amd64-nanobsd_vga-upgrade-20140204-0232.img.gz (edit 3: Works fine without patch)
            Aside note, probably not related, i have to  Restart webConfigurator to change settings maybe a day or less before i do another Restart webConfigurator or reboot. Some time i have to do a hard reboot to boot (to refresh my huawei e392-u12, after unplug usb i have to reboot pfSense, otherwise i can't connect - stable 2.1 and i think 2.01 and 2.02). But this is for another topic.

          pfSense:
          ASRock -> Wolfdale1333-D667 (2GB TeamElite Ram)
          Marvell 88SA8040 Sata to CF(Sandisk 4GB) Controller
          NIC's: RTL8100E (Internal ) and Intel® PRO/1000 PT Dual (Intel 82571GB)

            Renato spotted an issue with the mpd script and put in a fix, snapshots dated after this post should be OK

              Thanks

              I see the fix,  should be OK buy i will test and give feedback.

              https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/repository/revisions/5833def1a5ccd4b625ff07349c4060a33772d897.

              Can i change the 3G icon for the LTE or 4G? Its´s a cosmetic thing but… .Cell Mode is reporting wrong information, currently i have "None, No Service Mode" sometime i have a 3G mode in locked LTE Mode USB.
