      Hey Guys/girls,

      I've got 2 PF sense boxen setup.  One as a gateway, to a core network, the other as a router (With nat/firewall turned off, as per - http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,8017.0.html) to route traffic between the core network and two other networks.

      The gateway works great…however I'm having a wierd issues with the router.  It keeps connection fine, if I ping though it, it never drops a packet.  But open connections, such as Copying Files (SMB, not HTML), RDP etc, keep dropping and timing out.  I can do everything internet related though it fine, I can start the RDP conncetion...but then it will keep getting droped every 30 seconds or so.

      Any ideas?

          You might try pinging with various sized packets to verify your MTU's are sane.
