General Discussion / IP Fixed for the WAN

« on: December 03, 2022, 10:58:49 am »

Hi there,
First I apologize if I am mistaking few concepts I am very new into the networking game, lacking of knowledge obviously but I will try to fix it with time and also a ton of patience ...
So I recently bought a proctectli where I installed OPNsense on and as you may already guess I am facing a tiny problem, from my point of view it doesn't look like a big thing to solve but still I am walking in the fog here so I need your help guys.
What I want to do is to configure the WAN interface with a fixed address.
This is how I configured the fixed IP: Interfaces -> WAN ->  IPv4 Configuration Type -> Static IPv4
The problem with a fixed IP PC_1 doesn't have access to internet and I can't find what I am missing, I looked over few options in the OPNsense GUI but I don't want to brick every thing ... and I already played enough with plug/unplugged the monitor/keyboard into protectli during various installations ^_^
Thank

Virtual private networks / Can't access LAN IP of Access Point via Wireguard connection

« on: December 03, 2022, 10:57:08 am »

Hi there,
Thanks for having me.
I am a total noob to Opnsense and Wireguard, but i have successfully managed to setup an Opnsense router for my LAN and I established a Wireguard tunnel from an android client to my LAN.
I can access my Nas that is part of the local area network and i can even access the Opnsense router via the wireguard tunnel.
For some reason I cannot access one specific IP address in this Lan which happens to be the WebUI of my access point in the house. (192.168.1.254 in case that matters)
I have tried to ping that IP from the android device and i get a response immediately.
Does anyone have any idea why I can easily access all devices within that Subnet but i can access that AP?
Thanks in advance,
Heiko
