Somehow everything seems to work, until I realized that my ISP was making a DoS with multicast. It is pretty much what was described years ago here: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/62591/igmp-issues-causing-isp-to-perform-multicast-dos-on-my-pfsense/7.

Which version of FreeBSD is this (uname -a) ?
