There's a recent post on these forums where a similar upgrade took out someone's WAN gateway and other posters concurred that the same happened to them. When the system rebooted, my WAN gateway was gone too. I tried to recreate it but no change.

I ran the system update from Dashboard. It didn't seem like a major upgrade - from 26.1.1 to 26.1.4. I do remember upgrading from 26.1.1 to either x.1.2 or x.1.3 back in January and having the same result. At that time I simply restored my old config and at least had internet access again.  This upgrade gave me a message that a reboot would occur after the update.

As I say I'm going to start fresh, following OPNSense docs as I did when I first set it up a couple of years ago. Hopefully in that process I might see something I missed along the way?

I was attempting to install the acme community plugin. I've been running OPNSense for about three years with no problems. I saw that I needed an update to install the plugin. Updated to 26.1.4.
Upon reboot I had nothing. No connection to the internet. No WAN gateway. None of my firewall rules working.
Before shutting down and using a commercial wifi router I have lying around, I did notice something about new firewall rules. Seems strange that would take down my entire network, though.
At this point I'll need to start fresh. Is there a guide that encompasses whatever seemingly major changes have been made lately? I'm not an OPNSense expert, obviously, but I was using it to do everything I needed with Suricata and Mullvad working just fine. At this point I would be installing OPNSense from the beginning and going through setup. The installers I'm seeing appear to go back a few months.   that makes me think a fresh install will put me back in the same position as soon as I update. Again, is there a guide that includes whatever changes were made to the system so that I can start from there? Thanks everyone!
