So I have been using version 24.7 previously. Last night I updated to 25.1.6 and after it rebooted, I noticed my network never came back. I plugged the OPNsense box into the monitor and found it was hanging during the boot/initialization after the opnsense boot screen. I have tried several times to boot into 25.1 6, and even tried to go back to 24.7 and found I cannot now. The only thing that works that is recent is 25.1. Is there a work around? Is there a bug that is going to get worked on for this? After installing 25.1 I have several plugins that I cannot install that I had installed before due to it telling me I need to update to 25.1.6 to install them. I really love OPNsense but if there is a way to get this resolved or a way to fix this please let me know.
Update: so i was able to get version 25.1 working with limitations. I really would like to be able to have my plugins back but if i try to update it gets stuck in boot. The update to 25.1.6_4 is required.

FreeBSD 14.2 circumvented the issue by accident. The best bet is to still raise a ticket at https://bugs.freebsd.org to get that thing booting regardless of ISA/ACPI hints being used.
