Thanks. My FW4B came with opnsense preinstalled and the first port was WAN corresponding to what was printed on it. I guess that’s why I was bothering to change it. But I agree with you.. ignoring it will save me all the trouble anyway.

Thanks. I suppose that means get to the screen i showed earlier and then use a command to get to the menu… I’m sorry to be a pain. Newbie here

I see what the problem is. The ports were switched when I reset opnsense. My WAN port is now LAN and LAN port is WAN. I switched them around (plugged WAN to LAN and vice versa) and now I can reach opnsense on 192.168.1.1.
I’ve heard this talked about before.
Any newbie proof way to reassign them real quick?

This is what I've got. It looks ok to me _ I can see LAN is set at 192.168.1.1/24. Any ideas what next to do?

Or you can get a USB to RJ45 console cable, these have an integrated converter chip.

I got one of that. will give it a try

Thanks for the suggestion. Sorry to be such a pain but I am a newbie... From what I have read I need to connect the cable to the COM port but will need a USB to serial adapter to connect with my laptop. Does that sound right? I will have to go grab one real quick.

I have the protectli vault FW4B preconfigured with opnsense. After a session where i failed to connect to the internet, with the PPOE settings given to me by Vodafone UK (I tried VLAN 101 and 900) I decided to reset my vault to default settings. Now I can’t connect to opnsense on https://192.168.1.1. Am i missing something here? I have tried my initial custom LAN IP address which is not working as expected. I’m totally new to opnsense. Can anyone suggest what to do other than pulling my hair out 😀?

I also had the same problem. I am on the openreach network but just using the PPOE login details did not work for me. I did not get it to work with the VLAN 101. I was frustrated and hadn't touched my Pfsense router for 3 weeks. I want to give it a try again.
What docs is being referred to here?
