You mean those 2 from Bridge guide:
net.link.bridge.pfil_member and set the value to 0
net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge and set the value to 1

Yes, those were done day 1.

Thanks, looks like it helped. My WLAN connection is part of Bridge (together w/ OPT1, OPT2 and OPT3) and therefore also LAN. Firewall rules were applied only for LAN. Now I made similar Default rules also for WLAN. OPTx connections still are without rules and relay on LAN rules. Everything in other rooms work (via switch, via separate AP, via LAN, via OPT1). Strange that WLAN requires special approach, to me it was just like another port involved in bridge.

I was able to solve my main issue with Chromecast by enableing "Allow intra-BSS communication", but connecting to BubbleUPnP still gives error that I want to connect from WAN. Yes I could allow Wan settings from Bubble, but do not want (due security).
What OPNSense does block/filter that connecting via its internal Wifi makes one service in LAN to think that I'm trying to connect from WAN ?

Disclaimer: I'm aware that having Opnsense box acting like switch (bridge ports) and AP in the same time is not liked scenario, but I'm on home envoironment with light load. So here I am... using Topton box with 3 LAN/bridged ports and Atheros n-Wifi card. 25.7.10 with almost default settings (Dnsmasq + unbound, no ipv6 or any strange config or plugins).
In big picture everything works as normal. Due to my room layout I need to have Chromecast audio connected to my Opnsense box Wifi. It works well and I can stream audio into it from my computer, media server (both connected via cable and another switch to Opnsense) and iPhone, when iPhone is connecting to my other AP on the other side of the house - same 192.168.1.x network, same SSID, channel 6. But when I approach my living room where Opnsense and Chromecast locate and iPhone jumps to Opnsense box channel 1, I can not see Chromecast anymore - basically they can not share same AP). All other services work - Roon, web browsing, email etc. I can see other devices on my network - printer, Opnsense webui, BESIDES BubbleUPnP server installed in my media server. It starts asking password (not set), which acc. to Bubble help means, that "I try to accsess it from another network". But I'm not - all devices in 192.168.1.xxx
If I walk into other AP, all good.
I have done the Bridge and Wifi (part of bridge) following to the letter the Opnsense guide. Nothing I can see here which could create such issue.
I read somewhere that doing Bridge setup wrong, could cause issues with Multicast. Could that be it ? What shall I look for there ?

25.7, 25.10 Series / Re: Upgrade to 25.7 failed, or ?

Yes, I started upgrade from WebUI and from the moment it went to reboot, I waited 35-40 minutes. I tought that it is way too long (isn't it ?). To restart the box I pulled power cable for and waited 10 seconds, then put it back. System booted to current state. I did not have VGA monitor available or I did not follow the process via SSH.

Shall I log via SSH and start with opnsense-update -up command ?

I have 4GB of memory. What is OOM issue (googled - out of memory ? no idea...) ?

EDIT: could not resist and went for it... all OK. Only issue was me being impatient. As seen on upgrade log, I pulled the plug on package 173 out of 175, this time I gave 5 minutes more (40+ minutes total) and it upgraded as it should. Considering my usual luck, its no miracle... I guess this is normal update time for such a old box.

Thank you for holding my hand !

EDIT2: I also attached VGA and monitored the boot. It takes long time to configuring OPT1, OPT2 and OPT3 (few minutes each). I have bridged them together as switch. Is it normal ? Something I can tune to speed it up ?

To avoid confusion - I'm the OP and my Terra G2 box has Via Nano CPU and no microcode package is installed !

I attached Audit output file. As you can see kernel and base system are reported already 25.7, I did not notice this before. But Status page shows:

25.7, 25.10 Series / Upgrade to 25.7 failed, or ?
August 03, 2025, 02:11:21 PM
Hello, complete noob and first time poster here ! I'm happy to join Opnsense community !

Got Black Dwarf Terra G2 box some weeks ago with 25.1 on it. Got everything up and running rather fast and smoothly. I have no fancy configuration, but also using Wifi AP (Atheros) on it (due Chromecast). All fine. Upgraded smoothly to 25.1.12, also installed os-realtek plugin/driver as my box has RTL8xxx cards on it. Run even system audit. All OK.

Today I tried to upgrade to 25.7 via webgui - everything downloaded fine, initial checks were OK. Last line on webgui console window was !!!ATTENTION!!! but I do not know what came after that, as box went to reboot.

I waited 30-40 mins but box never came up again. Then I lost my patience and re-plugged power cord. It booted fine, but I'm still on 25.1.12. Everything seems to work as I'm posting this. No traces of upgrade. How can I check what (if any) is the error ? I have no console options available right now and all LOG files start with current (successful) boot.
