Title: New installation. No internet connection.
Post by: estebanz on July 23, 2022, 08:51:47 PM
Hello everyone :'(. I am new using opnsense. Today I set up my opnsense router and everything went well. It managed to set everything up without a problem, but I don't have an internet connection for some reason.

My modem is directly connected to the WAN of my opnsense router, and the LAN is connected to a switch where I have my other devices. But none have Internet access.

Everything is default, I have not changed anything. The firewall rules seem to be fine.

Only my LAN does not have access to the Internet i think.

Maybe my isp modem is the problem? is just a simple fiber modem.

Any advice? Thanks.

You need to configure your WAN interface with the information at hand that you get from your ISP. The Internet connection won't be esatblished by magic.

Hi, thanks for such a quick response.

How do I do that?

WAN is configured in DHCP mode.

So the same problem you had with pfSense?
Unplug OPNSense from your ISP's router and plug a pc into the same port.
Do you get internet on it?

You say "new install", do you mean your internet was just installed or do you mean a new router (OPNSense/pfSense)?
If internet, you may have to agree to TOS before they allow access.
Your other posts was definitely a DNS issue and ISP's block DNS until you agree.
Could be the problem.
