have you tried a hard reset? 

 

I don't have any access to the machine, so i think my only option is to pull the plug on it

Ok, I'm confused. You are unable to reset the machine, but you can physically unplug it? That should be fine. Do you have a backup image saved in case you need to do a full reinstall?

Sounds like it’s time to reload it and restore from a config backup if you have one. Assuming a hard reboot didn’t do anything. If it doesn’t POST, you probably have a hardware issue.

I ended up just puling the plug on it, seams to be running fine now, I think some bug in Pfsense 2.4 caused it
