1. Make sure "enabled" key is set to "yes" in /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf
2. Change "enabled: no" to "enabled: yes" in /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf
3. Change "enabled: no" to "enabled: yes" in /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf for FreeBSD repo
4. Now you're able to install packages from FreeBSD official repo
