Most news sites won't let you read articles if you are using an ad blocker. My question is, really what's the point if I have to whitelist dozens of sites or disable Blocklist? Am I missing something?

Did you check whether dpinger is actually running for the affected interface (System: Diagnostics: Services)?

It is. Thanks

I'm struggling to figure this out. I have a dual WAN setup and haven't had any issues to date.

This morning, we lost Internet on the LAN. My primary Internet, Mediacom, showed no issues. Same with my backup, T Mobile.

Reporting Traffic showed traffic on Mediacom yet it still showed Status was offline.

Mediacom came back online but T Mobile still shows Offline.

I'm not sure if the current online status is stable right now.

I'm looking for help. Thanks

I'm assuming that these are really not an OPNSense questions. Have you looked into T Mobile internet for either yourself or parents.  This would definitely separate the activity.  Short of that, buy a better router and put the ATT equipment in bridge mode to allow your router to control the network. One of the primary reasons I installed software like OPNSense was the ability to create separate networks (subnets). I started with Untangle.

Since this is temporary, my first option would be T Mobile.  Good luck.

I followed this and mine works perfectly.

Did you set it up to use remotely?  I started another thread about Tailscale as I'm told this is the way to get it to work remotely.

Is there an updated "How To" for setting this up?  The searches I come up with are prior to it being a plugin that can be installed from the GUI.

Anyone using this?

I think I corrected this by switching the Outgoing mail to GMail and set up an "ApP Password" in Google.


I'm also getting this

SMTP: Mailserver response error -- 550-Sender address is not allowed.

and

Mail: Mailserver response error -- 550-Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable

I've set up Monit and am configuring an email alert. What I want is an email when WAN 2 kicks in on Failover. Is there a way to set the alert to trigger when there is activity on WAN 2?

I just did the upgrade and updates using the web GUI.  It seemed to go without a hitch.  I'm only about 25 minutes in to the new version but just having it complete and have the system come up is great.  I did a configuration backup just prior to doing the update.  Should I do another one now or will they be the same?  Any advice on things I should check/test?  Thanks

Initially, I did a search and did find hits on OPNSense affecting this.  Simple first question, if I can cast with a PC but not a tablet/phone, would that mean that the problem is not OPNSense related? Thanks

I'm far from an expert here but why aren't you using multi-wan and failover as designed by OPNSense using 2 interfaces?

For anyone playing with this, make sure you uncheck Sticky Connections in Firewall -> Advanced if your backup WAN is metered.

I posted this question on another board and was told not to use a group so I'm giving it a try.
