Well, I did the upgrade and now I have had a total failure.
None of the port forwarding is working, and trying to browse to any 
website times out (squid runs on the firewall)
I can traceroute out, RPD out, etc....
I ended up with version 4.0.15
Should I try to remove it and go back to 3.3 or try to figure out what 
happened here?
I changed no configs.. and I said no when the package manager asked if 
it could.
