I upgraded to 22.1.6 from 22.1.5 and this upgrade made it so it showed my gateway offline and here are some symptoms I had noticed:


  • Part of my network devices / computers worked (weird?)
  • The opnsense box was able to reach the internet just fine - again gateway showed offline.

Here's what I tried to do to fix it (not in this exact order but did try all of these listed):


  • Reboot ISP modem
  • Reboot opnsense box
  • Disabled gateway monitoring (so that it would just be online no matter what)
  • Upgraded to the latest development version... because why not? I was already at the point of ready to just re-install and restore config...

What fixed it so far because everything else listed above did not work... I disabled my OPT1 interface.  This, this for some reason made my gateway come back online.  I then re-enabled my OPT1 interface and the internet at this point is still working.  I wish I knew why this worked but at this point I'm glad I don't have to re-install and restore my config.

Just thought I'd share my experience with my upgrade here in case anyone else has a similar issue upgrading to 22.1.6.  If this is some how a known issue I was not able to locate any threads for this kind of issue with this kind of fix (my searching skills could be rusty).

I do have a question, now that I'm on the latest development version... not that I sometimes don't mind being on the bleeding edge... is it possible to switch back to the community version when the official release of 22.7.x is ready for release?  Thanks.
