My Plex keeps loosing its internet connect. error since I updated to to 9,3. I tried to go back but still same issue. I loose internet on my plex jail shortly after I go to the web GUI for plex. I can still ping computers on my network but no internet connection. After I loose internet connection if I change the IP address on the jail and restart the jail. The internet connection comes back till I accesses the web GUI for plex. I have two other jails (Sickrage & Transmission) and they run flawlessly. I read in some forums (I'm sorry I don't remember where right now) people getting the same error, using plex plugin as well and they changed their NIC to a Intel 1000 Series and that fixed the issue. I put an Intel Pro 1000 GT Desktop in my box (I'm going to swap it out for the PCI-E version but I doubt that fixes my issue), I'm still having the same problem and I can't find an answer anywhere, I've research for many hours now, since I have had this issue for nearly two months. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the whole process from the messages log:

Were you able to figure this out?

No not yet. It seems that i can only have 2 working jails at a time. Any jails over the first two, they wont hold the Internet connection as soon as the plugin starts running. I got plex running by only having one jail running. If i have more than two jails the plex jail looses Internet connection as soon as i log in on the plex web gui. With sickrage and transmission if i have more than two jails. The jails loose internet as soon as the plugin is turned on. When i first installed freenas, i was on 9.2 and everything worked. I tried to a fresh intall of 9.10.1 and still having the same issue. I think the problem started when i upgraded to 9.3. Im going to try a fresh install of 9.2 and see what happens. Ive run all ifconfig and netstat CMDs. Everything looks fine. For the jails over two. I can still ping in and out of the jail on my local network but i cannont ping to the internet or do the default gateway (router) after the plugin is started. I've tried installing from pkg instead of plugin and still have the same issue. A friend of mine who is more advanced with linux then i am. Thinks its a layer 2 issue. With that im not sure what to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, start with what your jail network configuration looks like. Are these manual IP addresses or dhcp? Have you run out of IP addresses in your subnet?
Do you have an IP address conflict?

IP addresses are all static and with in my subnet. IP range for jails is 192.168.1.225 - 192.168.1.230 (I changed the range after the reinstall, still same issue but thats why the IP address in the log is 192.168.1.3. The new IP is whatever the IP of the 3rd jail is, 192.168.1.22x) No IP conflicts.

All my PCs (3), video game systems (1) and wireless devieces (2) connect on 192.168.1.2 - 9.

System:
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Freenas: 192.168.1.9
NIC: em0 driver (Intel Gigabit CT)
Netmask: /24 (255.255.255.0)
Nameserver:
1. 192.168.1.1
2. 8.8.8.8
3. 8.8.8.4

Everything looks good there, correct?
Im still new to linux but had this all working correctly on first install, before i ever updated.

Let me know if there are any logs u wanna see.
