16.7 Legacy Series / [SOLVED] Problems getting out to the internet

« on: September 25, 2016, 12:03:05 pm »

Hi guys,

I have recently had the task of taking our old Watchguard 525 firewall and installing OPNsense onto it.

I have the LAN working fine but im having some problems with the WAN side of things.

We have a Virgin Media (UK) business router which has a different subnet and a static ip assigned.

From my laptop and the firewall i can ping the LAN and the WAN interface and the router interface, however i cant get out to the internet.

I have no gateway set on the LAN and the gateway for the WAN is the static ip set on the router.

WAN interface ip -192.168.0.10/24
Router LAN ip - 192.168.0.1/24
WAN interface gateway - External static ip on router

Any help or things i have missed will be appreciated

General Discussion / [SOLVED] Fresh install, cant ping LAN interface

Hi,

I have just installed opnsense on a Watchguard 525, i have given my LAN interface the ip 192.168.1.1 and set it to act as a dhcp server.

My laptop is getting an ip in that subnet (so the watchguard can contact my laptop) but i cannot ping the LAN interface.

Am i missing something obvious?
