checking for updates failing after fresh install

[skyeci2018]

Is it possible to roll back the upgrade- if so how do you do it?

Many thanks

What's our issue here? I keep asking the same question and I don't get an answer other than "but it's broken". If you can't check for firmware is that your only issue or are your clients not working or what else...

Hi Franco.

Whilst I dont want to confuse matters as soon as the upgrade was applied my latency on the wan port has doubled. Never had any issues on the old version and I didn't reset my fibre connection. I would like to revert it . More concerned about the latency sudden increase at the present.

Thanks

Fair enough. The quickest way is certainly this:

# opnsense-bootstrap -r 22.1

DISCLAIMER: 22.7 to 22.1 is likely safe but in general I would recommend avoiding downgrades in such a way.

After reboot to reenable the upgrade do this:

# rm /usr/local/opnsense/version/pkgs


Cheers,
Franco

Same problem here, after an update to 22.7

do you have a  public DNS server listed for Wan gateway under
system > settings > general?

https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/settingsmenu.html



DNS servers
   

A list of DNS servers, optionally with a gateway. These DNS servers are also used for the DHCP service, DNS services and for PPTP VPN clients. When using multiple WAN connections there should be at least one unique DNS server per gateway.

2 public and 3 domain controllers

Thanks Franco. I opted not to revert and pulled another unit which is a spare on the latest revision for testing/comparison.

The 2 issues on 2 box's were
1) updates failing to check etc
2) soon as the update was applied to my live box out of hours this morning my wan latency increased from historical 6.5ms (over 12 months) to 15ms for both ipv4 and ipv6...

Anyway I'm pleased to say for now everything is working. I reset the time, changed dns settings which seems to have resolved the failure with regards to updates.

I don't know if this is literally the cause of the latency issue but I could replicate it across 2 units.  After a lot of messing about I removed my stored duid and disabled/re-enabled ipv6 within opnsense. Both gateways are back to 6.5ms so for now all appears well.

Thanks
