Hello

I am facing strange problem that I did not manage to resolve yet, so I am asking for your help.
I have fresh install of OPNsense 17.7. (never before have I used OPNsense, only pfSense). WAN connection type is PPPoE and it is established (ONPsense get public IP), but from PC I can not ping domain name or access any web page. I can ping IP (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4,...) without any problem.
Both pings (domain name and IP) works from OPNsense GUI.

OPNsense is connected to ISP's modem and if I setup PPPoE on modem and change WAN connection type on OPNsense to DHCP (OPNsense gets local IP from modem) internet access and pings works fine.

Any idea what am I doing wrong with PPPoE connection on OPNsense?

Hi!

I have a similar problem (maybe the same). In my case, with 17.1.11. From time to time, there's no access from the lan to the wan. Apparently, everything is OK, WAN has ip (through pppoe) but no traffic to Internet (using DNS or not). Voip and IPTV are not affected (different vlans).


Regards,

Assuming you are using a windows client:
ping 8.8.8.8 works. -?
what is the output of ipconfig /all ? is it showing a defined dns server?

Happened to me and most of the feedback given has pointed to the NIC chipset; Realtek.
