[Timeout while connecting to the selected mirror.]

Hello Everyone,

I have been stuck with this issue for the last 3 months. The last successful update was in November 2018.

Basically, whenever I try to update my OPN firewall through the WebUI, I get the message:
Timeout while connecting to the selected mirror.

Below are some tests that I have done:

-Ping mirror from firewall - KO
-Ping mirror IP from firewall - KO
-Ping mirror from workstation - OK
-Ping mirror IP from workstation - OK

I have a default route to the internet on the firewall. I have tried to add specific routes to the mirror (as suggested in other posts) but its still KO.

Updating through the CLI is only a temporary solution for me, since company policy is to disable SSH login.

Firewall version is OPNsense 18.7.8-amd64

The firewall a Virtual Machine, installed on ProxMox 5.2-12.

While going through the forum, I have come across someone having the same issue:

I have tried to apply their solution, but to no avail; I still get the same error message.

Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks.
