23.7 Legacy Series / Re: OPNsense via Fritzbox not allowing access to WAN/LAN
« on: August 13, 2023, 08:25:05 am »
Hi,
- I am running a cable from LAN1 on the Fritz!Box to the NIC I have selected as my WAN interface in OPNsense when I installed it
no. put the fritzbox lan1 on your switch. it can be in the same subnet as the opnsense. that way u can still use wlan or telephony from your FB
- I put Fritz!Box in bridging mode, essentially demoting it to an IP device
after you set your FB in bridging mode, make sure you use the Port you choosed for bridging to connect to the wan nic of your opnsense device. set the wan interface to dhcp, dhcpv6. you will get an own public ip on your wan interface then. see attached screenshot. in that case lan 4 goes to your wan nic on your opnsense.
set the opnsense lan port to the same network as your fb, pihole and so on and connect it to your switch.
Voila, your done
