      Hello,

      I've just installed pfsense on an ESX 5.5 .

      I need to use it to set a SQUID proxy. The problem is that when I want to download a package I have the error "Unable to communicate with http://packages.pfsense.org. Please verify DNS and interface configuration, and that pfSense has functional Internet connectivity."

      When I  try to ping www.google.fr it doesn't work because I see that it's using the default source address. When I choose the WAN interface,  the ping it works.

      I think that maybe when I try to download the package , pfsense tries to reach the address with the default source address. But I don't know if I can choose a source address when I want to download a package.

      Can I have some help please?
