Upgraded to 24.1_1, cannot ping out to the internet now. Not sure what changed.
Pinging from OPNsense command line:
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
Has anyone else seen this?
I have stopped suricata, zenarmor, crowdsec, and nothing seems to help.
Check your default gateway for IPv4. It went missing on my box after the upgrade. I had to manually create it (static ip configuration).
You might also want to have a look at the gateway config in the WAN interface, being set to Auto-Config.
Thanks for the quick reply! That was definitely it.

Thank you, that also fixed my issue. I still have two question:
* Do you, or someone else, know why the default gateway was deleted?
* Why do you recommend to set the gateway to auto-config in the settings for the wan interface?
Hi,
I don't know about the reasons for the missing gateway. But some people here reported that earlier and I saw it on my machine, too.
The Auto-config is stated in the docs and the help for all cases where you just have 1 WAN. It furthermore prevents you from an unexpected routing behavior in cases where a second gateway in a subnet exists. It causes all traffic to take the set gateway.

Could you please tell me where I can find these settings?
I went to Interfaces > [WAN] but I couldn't find an item to set to Auto-Config.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Check "IPv4 Upstream Gateway" settings on the interface of your LAN.
On WAN this can only be set in static config.
The docs say why this is important: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/interfaces.html
It causes all replies to traffic coming in through the interface going out to the gateway, if defined. In networks other than transfer networks this may cause a lot of pain.
In pure 1-1 transfer networks it just doesn't matter as there are no other addressable hosts.
oh, my IPv4 Upstream Gateway on LAN is (and can only be) set to Auto-detect.
I guess this is what you mean by Auto-config and everything is now set correctly.
Thanks for your help!
