But can you ping *domains* from the pfSense box, like www.google.com ?
The point isn't to see if you can ping, but if ping can complete a DNS
lookup and retrieve an IP successfully. This is potentially more useful
than using DNS specific lookup tools, since ping will rely on the OS DNS
resolution settings rather than (potentially) using it's own.

Hello all,
I am Newbie, my pfsense is behind the ISP router, having a
private ip of 192.x.x.x
i can ping via ssh and via web console both i can also check
dnslookup from console and ssh they are working fine. however
when i click on available packages. i see this
Unable to communicate with www.pfsense.com
<http://www.pfsense.com>. Please verify DNS and interface
configuration, and that pfSense has functional Internet
connectivity.
any idea what i am mistaking. i even uncheck block private ip
addressess option from "Interfaces" and "WAN" still i can ping
to 8.8.8.8 but can not see anything in available packages tab
except above error.
Thanks,
MYK
