You really shouldn't leave help requests as one-star comments; that's an incredibly mean thing to do.

Did you check connectivity on the firewall first before trying to update? One of the most common mistakes people make is forgetting to setup dns properly after deployment (when not auto provisioned via dhcp). You can easily debug common issues using the Audit->Connectivity option on the firmware page. Our forum is always open for discussions at https://forum.opnsense.org/
