24.1 Legacy Series / Default route not added after PPPoE restart

« on: May 17, 2024, 05:43:47 pm »

I'm having an issue in that the default route is not added after a restart of the PPPoE connection (e.g., by changing WAN settings then clicking 'Apply'). This prevents client internet access entirely.

The default route does not show in Routes > Status. Fix is either to restart or to go to Gateways > Configuration and click 'Apply' (no settings change needed).

Is there any solution to this?

22.7 Legacy Series / Firewall/NAT causing issues with basic setup - 22.7.11 & 23.1-RC1

« on: January 19, 2023, 06:08:18 pm »

I have noticed that, for some reason, the firewall/NAT does not appear to be functioning correctly on 22.7.11 and 23.1-RC1.

My setup is fairly basic (at least the one I have been using for diagnostics). I have a PPPoE WAN connection and a LAGG LAN connection. I have not set up anything else for the purposes of testing.

On a 22.7 fresh install, the firewall works fine, however after upgrading to 22.7.11 and 23.1-RC1, many programs do not work. For example, Speedtest.net fails with a 'socket error', fast.com does not work, gaming/internet calls do not work and certain endpoints simply fail to connect all together. No relevant blocks are shown in the firewall log and I couldn't see anything untoward in any of the other logs.

I'm fairly certain 22.7.10 worked correctly, but I can't find a way to revert back to that specific release.

The issue can be easily reproduced - running a fresh install of 22.7 works perfectly, updating to 22.7.11 then breaks the setup. A fresh install of 23.1-RC1 also poses the same issue. I can use the same configuration files on all setups.

Is anyone else having a similar issue and/or has any suggestions? I'm not sure what else I can do as I have tried running all versions from scratch and only 22.7(.0) works correctly. However, I would be keen to update as soon as possible to ensure all packages are up to date. It also prevents me installing plugins until updates have been completed.
