I am having trouble seeing available packages, updating pkg, or getting a response from pfsense.org. Is anyone else seeing this or am I going to spend the rest of my day chasing bugs? Source: over 1 year ago

The above setup is critical to a reliable system. I'd use enterprise quality routers for a store and home connection. I personally use https://pfsense.org but there are many to choose from and several open source. Source: over 1 year ago
What I would do is put that thing in DMZ and install a good router behind it like https://www.pfsense.org. No affiliation, just been my router for many years. There's also it's sibling https://opnsense.org. There are many, just get a enterprise quality router. Source: over 1 year ago

I recently installed pfSense on bare metal and not able to connect pfSense to the internet. I can ping 1.1.1.1 from Diagnosis -> ping. But cannot ping pfsense.org from Diagnosis -> ping. System does not show update information with "Unable to check for updates". Same with Package, I am receiving "unable to receive package information" message. GUI takes forever to load as well.

Thank you! I am not able to reach netgate.com or pfsense.org either, the weird part is that I have been receiving this error for almost 1 week now at exactly 9pm every day. I wonder if this is when most systems backup, so it floods the server. Source: almost 3 years ago
Https://netgate.com is down currently due to some DNS issues. This error is likely related to that - nothing on your end. Keep monitoring. If you can reach netgate.com in your browser and ACB still fails, we have an issue after all. But I would hazard a guess you will be OK. pfsense.org also effected. Same issue.

Both the aruba and brocade switches are L3 which means they can be routers. But they do not do NAT functionality. You're going to need to do a Router or Firewall on a stick topology for the NAT functionality. My suggestion is to build a Firewall/router or buy a pre-made one pfsense.org or opnsense.org.
