watching this issue as it's something similar to what I'm seeing. Are you seeing the resolution of the DNS take a while before fetch then kicks into gear? How is your DNS setup?

21.7 Legacy Series / Slow 'fetch' from shell
November 02, 2021, 10:59:05 PM
Hi All,

I'm getting an issue where DNS resolution seems to be slow and is affecting my ability to use 'fetch' within the shell. Below is a snapshot of my command and I get a significant pause on the 'resolving server address: www.routerperformance.net:443' step. Seems like this is affected by IPv6 also. I run unbound on this opnsense instance and unbound seems to resolve the same address quickly, is there something I'm missing that might affect this?

$ fetch -o /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/mimugmail.conf https://www.routerperformance.net/mimugmail.conf -v

thanks! So in a world where nothing is supplied and unbound is running I assume these are redundant as Unbound should connect directly to the root DNS servers anyway (if configured), right?

Hi All,
What is recommended to supply for DNS servers in System -> Settings -> General? Should this always be set? Or can I rely on what comes from my gateway provider by DHCP or is supplied in my DHCP config? How does /does not this affect DHCP? I assume if I run Unbound whatever is supplied in this config screen is useless, right?

21.7 Legacy Series / Xbox Live - IPv6 / Comcast
August 16, 2021, 09:12:49 PM
Hi All,

I'm hoping I can ask for your help with an issue I'm having when using Opnsense and IPv6 on an Xbox specifically. I am using Comcast and configured my opnsense install similar to this - https://homenetworkguy.com/how-to/configure-ipv6-opnsense-with-isp-such-as-comcast-xfinity/#_ all works well and I'm getting IPv6 addresses correctly within the network. Checking via IPv6 test sites work as expected except when using Xbox Live. The Xbox fails to connect to any multiplayer games in this case.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Cheers!
