But why arent you just inspecting on the internal interfaces which always have the invariants for the existing home net implementation.

Inspecting WAN and then building around that because it doesnt work in your environment sounds counter intuitive.

I can still understand it for v6, but not for v4.

The current (HOME_NET) implementations invariant is "There are no dynamic public addresses on internal interfaces"

Tutorials and FAQs / Noob trying to get Wireguard o...
Last post by RoWAN Tree - Today at 07:42:04 PM
Hi I'm a noob trying this for the first time. I have been trying to get wireguard to work on a diy mini pc for over a month, I pay for internet but don't want to use the router they sent me so I bought the mini PC and installed opnsense.. I bought a TpLink TLSG108E managed switch and that been setup as well, my issue is that I can't connect to wireguard I put all the information in and try the DNS settings but I get lost because I don't understand everything, it locks me out then I have to reinstall and do everything again. Chatgpt sucks because it keeps freezing in the middle of setting up. I am having burnout with this and I haven't even got a working connection to the internet yet.. As a noob please add an update to your documentation tutorials because you update the software but then the tutorials become obselete..  If someone can help me figure this out would be cool. this is my last attempt at trying to solve this before abandoning the idea of having a private network, thanks for anyone's time!

haha mmmm :P

i added -a to the fetch args in opnsense-prefetch and ran it again:

opnsense-prefetch doesn't use -T so this means the connection may be terminated by the ISP or fetch mishandles the stream.  One last thing to try is

# opnsense-prefetch -cr 26.7.8 kernel base

This uses curl instead of fetch so any TLS error handling that fetch may still have might not occur there.  Otherwise it's likely your ISP terminating large downloads.


Thanks,
Franco

Yes Sir, here it is:

# opnsense-prefetch -r 26.7.8 kernel base
Downloading kernel-26.7.8-amd64.txz.sig with remote size 1332:
kernel-26.7.8-amd64.txz.sig                           1332  B 7433 kBps    00s

fetch: kernel-26.7.8-amd64.txz appears to be truncated: 27232007/33253768 bytes

I saw something over the weekend that implied SSL was encountering an EOF

it doesn't stall tho it just pops an error right in the middle of receiving, usually towards the end

assuming the prefetch command respects my config this will be the Kent mirror btw

and yes I made sure to clarify the point of -T before I made the changes as the transfer always seemed to fail after a certain amount of time which gave me pause to wonder ... I just threw the 120 in there because I was already right there and I could, honestly

thx o7

Ok, can you at least run

# opnsense-prefetch -r 26.7.8 kernel base

and post the complete output?

-T does not impose a 30-second limit on the download. It specifies the idle timeout for fetch, i.e. how long the transfer can stall before timing out.
