SOLVED List of available plugins not populating

[le76]

Hey guys, currently using FreeNAS 9.3 (Version my micro server seems to support).

The list of plugins isn't populating for me. I've set my nameservers to Google's DNS (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4) and the IPV4 gateway to my router IP. (I also have a Pi-Hole on the network if that's relevant)

Pinging a website in shell is successful.

The repo I'm using is: http://download.freenas.org/plugins/9/x64/pbi-meta/pbi-repo.rpo

This issue has me stumped and I have no idea why. Help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

I have never heard of this happening, unless there is a problem with the DNS/nameservers or gateway, which you are stating is not the case. Another possibility is 9.3 is so vastly behind where we are that there's also a possibility that it's simply not a thing one can do anymore.

I downloaded the rpo file myself manually, and it appears to be some kind of compressed/obfuscated format, so I don't know what to make of that, but I find its size (1KB) to be suspiciously small. Maybe someone will know something? @dlavigne ?

It was the fact that 9.3 was simply too old, I tried installing 11.1 again and the plugins list worked fine. Thanks.
