comforting

Thanks for the tips.
(Copy of opnsense is not yet working as my router/firewall - - - I just
have it sitting
there - - - wanted to test the thing - - - really not liking that there is
no way to update
the software. I suppose that I'm supposed to learn FreeBSD now so that I
can achieve
that.)
Wondering if others will still chime in with their tips.
TIA
