Pfsense Plus free tier homelab license finally seems to have stopped working. This happened to anyone else?
I got a free pfsense plus homelab license back in late 2023 under their now discontinued program. It came with the full commercial version but only offered community level support. After pfsense discontinued the program they indicated that they would be grandfathering access to to the ongoing free license tier indefinitely for existing users of the program.
Well, looks like this policy may have come to an end. The mTLS certificate that validates access to the pfsense+ package repository appears to have stopped working for me on August 12.
Attempting to force an update of the cert yields:
>>> Updating repositories metadata...failed
Is there anyone else still on one of these old homelab licenses experiencing similar issues?
The cost for a commercial license is a bit too steep for me, especially considering the exchange rate where I'm from, so it's back to CE
Is migrating from Plus to CE using a saved config file relatively painless?
