[Resolved, sort of ...] OpnSense - no internet

After I restored the harddisk (not VM hardware) everything works again, so it looks like a problem with corruption or configuration of OpnSense on the harddisk.

The fact that restoring the Harddisk only solves the problem, rules the VM environment out (for me that is).

As I look at what is happening, it looks like the default route was somehow not working anymore, as any other route still worked.

That's what I would have thought at a point in the thread, hence my suggestions at the time. Still unproven though.

Do you mean restore the virtual disk that the virtual machine is using? and are you using zfs or ufs as the filesystem?
Also as I find this interesting, what's the flow here. Did you create a backup prior to a change and then restored this backup. Sorry but you haven't ruled anything yet in terms of environment.

I looked at it and searched google.
Everywhere, the standard HyperV network  adapters are adviced, also for FreeBsd (and yes, FreeBsd is 100% supported)

ok then. Fingers crossed said corruption is a one off.

kup. Sorry but you haven't ruled anything yet in terms of environment.

I mean that I restored the plain vhdx file that is attached to the SCSII controller and functions as HD. Would be the same in VMWare when the VMDK file is restored.
I use ZFS.
