24.1 Legacy Series / Unable update from 23.7.12 to 24.1.8 - SOLVED

« on: June 13, 2024, 11:59:59 am »

Hello

So I have tried to update from 23.7.12 to 24.1.8 and Opnsense dosent wont to update past 23.7.12.

- webgui performs the update and shows 23.7.12 each time.
- via ssh and option 12 (Update all from console), I just get presented with a text of the update to 24.1.8 but it dosent appear do the actual update.
- via ssh option 8 (shell), I tried opnsense-update -up and get the message "No known packages set to fetch was specified."

Short of doing doing a complete install from scratch, what are my other options..? or am I missiong something major/obvious..?

update - For the solution go to my 14th reply.

General Discussion / Connecting to OS on internal LAN: I get website/cert error

« on: April 18, 2024, 04:02:51 pm »

So trying to search for help with this online is in a word 'unhelpful' as all the advice is referring to having the issue with external websites. I tried search for both of the errors on here, but only found one post and that didn't apply to my situation.

When I try to access my OS box (192.168.1.1) on my internal LAN I am getting the following errors from Firefox & Kaspersky (see attached). I have tried adding the IP to the trusted sites in internet setting (Win10) and trusted URLs in Kaspersky, but I still keep getting that message.

Now while I don't have to access the firewall all that often, its still no less annoying. Any guidance would be welcome.

Tutorials and FAQs / Question: x86 appliance & OpnSense as home router replacement.

« on: October 11, 2023, 04:47:35 pm »

Afternoon

I did do a DG/GGL search for this, but wasnt getting concreate answers - 

So currently I have a 'miniPC' running pfsense (its over kill, 2x ethernet, i3-8GB-120SSD) and my old Tp-Link router as the access point. I would like to replace both of them with a single appliance. I live in a single floor flat so wifi transmission is not a concerne

- If the appliance come with a supported wifi adapter, I assume OpenSense has the ability to control that as an access point?
- If the appliance has multiple ethernet ports, can all the non-wan used ports be used as a switch?

If no to the above questions are I best then just going down the OpenWRT path with an old Soho Router?

thanks.
