[/usr/local/etc/rc.syshook.d/early/04-wpa]

For those seeing this. I was able to solve my problem. I had to make sure that the interface was enabled before I could run the WPA supplicant code.

I went to the 8311 discord and found the code posted here by Adamrc. There is a line omitted in the /usr/local/etc/rc.syshook.d/early/04-wpa file.

Code Select Expand


#!/bin/sh
/sbin/ifconfig igb0 link FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

env OPENSSL_CONF=/conf/wpa/openssl.conf /usr/local/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwired -i igb0 -B -C /var/run/wpa_supplicant -c /conf/wpa/wpa_supplicant.conf


Where igb0 is the interface, and FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF is the Gateway MAC

Not sure what is causing the problem on my end...
I just switched from pfSense to OPNsense. I have setup the files similar to those set out by adamrc, but my Wan interface never connects on reboot. I can get the process to work, but it takes a couple steps...

I have to ...
login to the system console
kill all wpa_supplicant processes
delete /var/run/wpa_supplicant/igb0
run 04-wpa

refresh the interface in the GUI, after these steps it will load an external IP.
I'm beginning to wonder if there isn't a race condition causing the failure, but I thought the "04-" would keep that from happening.

The system hangs on Initializing WAN interface while booting.

Anyone have any ideas, or how to best troubleshoot?
