Unable to install zenarmor on Pfsense 2.8.1

Hi there,

Whenever I try to install zenarmor on the latest pfsense 2.8.1 I get this error:

I do have a good WAN connection, so this cannot be the problem. Does anyone have an idea why this could happen? I tried to check whatever is going wrong on new installations because I have one zenarmor instance running on our own production pfsense firewall that is still running pfsense 2.8.0 CE, but the freebsd version is the same.

  Hi Tim,

  Thank you for reaching out and bringing this to our attention.

  Are you using the installation script in Zenconsole - Global Deployment or  "curl https://updates.zenarmor.net/getzenarmor | sh"?
