General Discussion / Sudden loss of access to some sites, Loss of Wlan, reboot fixes it.
« on: October 03, 2024, 11:59:18 pm »
Hello, i am working on my homelab and switched from Fritzbox as router to Fritzbox bridged + baremetal Opnsense + another Fritzbox for WLAN/Mesh
So far so good, at the moment NAT is working, WireGuard as well.
Now it happened 3 times, that i something strange happened.
What is happening: some internetsites (i.e. this forum), arent reachable anymore (my bad, that i didnt remember the error, but next time i will serve it to you ;-) but some are accessible, and the WLAN stops working
1st time during trying to get NAT working => restored the last backup as i thought i made a mistake XD
2nd during gaming => opnsense reboot
3rd was cooking in the kitchen and suddenly my TV lost the connection (thats the moment i realised, that it happened again) => opnsense reboot
meaning i cant relate this occasion to actions of mine, but - as a reboot of the opnsense helps - i am assuming there is something wrong ;-)
Tried to lookup in the plain firewall logs, but as i dont know the exact time, and there are so many entries and i have no clue what i am looking for, it wont help me at the moment
Any idea what i am looking for that you may be able to help me in future ?
