Title: 26.1.9 broke my DNS?
Post by: passeri on June 03, 2026, 08:05:40 AM
I upgraded my internal (not edge) router to 26.1.9 this morning (AEST), promptly losing DNS resolution although I could still ping external IP addresses. Reverting to the 26.1.8_5 snapshot did not resolve the problem. Absolutely nothing else was changed, this was a routine upgrade process. Has anyone else encountered this, such that I should report it formally?

All DNS is through Unbound on the edge. The internal router's Unbound points to the edge router.

For clarity I did not upgrade the edge router, so the other nets which do not pass through the internal router continued to behave normally. When I replaced the internal router with a switch then normal behaviour returned as expected.

Same issue here. Neither multiple restarts of unbound & dns-crypt as well as OPNsense nor a rollback to 26.1.5 (the entire VM image) fixed it. Yet, pings from OPN to e.g. 8.8.8.8 worked. Didn't have the time to check beyond this, but it seems quite odd.

Update: the rollback is now back up. No idea what happened there. Will go back to the latest version later in the day and report back to nail this down.

Did you try a health check?

Anything unusual in unbound debug logs ?

If a rollback failed it is more likely you experienced a brief internet outage that messed up the ssl connections in dnscrypt

Will try, and check. Currently it is unplugged. Tomorrow I will have time to set up to test those things without breaking internet for anyone else in the process.
