    Thanks for the cross-link to the manual package update. I'm gonna try that next.

    BTW, it's not about expiring keys -- there's something funky in the officially release package that causes Tailscale to not come up after a restart. It won't come up manually (tailscale up fails) either.

    I'm whining here because that always seems to happen when I am away. I have to delete the machine in the Tailscale admin, purge everything in pfSense, then reinstall. Really messes things up.

    Yes in Plus we added code to enable the authentication bridge to the AT&T router dircetly without using netgraph. That allows you to have a public IP on pfSense directly.

    You can still do that using the old netgraph method in CE.

    What you are able to do depends on what AT&T equipment and what connection type you have.

    Or the check_upgrade (1): unknown error alert? That is already fixed for almost every mode.

    @bigsy It sounds fairly immune to that scenario then. What I notice here, with my n300 is, that after SIP registration, the only SIP traffic from the N300 are SIP OK responses to SIP OPTIONS from the server (local asterisk). This I took to be a keep-alive mechanism.
    When the firewall state's lost for whatever reason, some form of SIP packet is needed from N300 to recreate the state. That didn't come until the next SIP REGISTER and my unit's was set at 3600.

    I have pf states set to conservative, which AIUI keeps UDP states for 900s.

    Having said all that, N300 and two handsets have worked quite well for me. Android softphones are another matter!

    Thanks for the discussion.

    Hmm, the current dev version should be fine. I'm running that here without issue.

    @kiokoman said in Port Forwarding not honered for .well-known/acme-challenge:

    you should consider setting up a split DNS instead if you can

    You can not. Since you're doing port translation, you need the NAT rule on pfSense.

    However , I'm wondering why your server use non-default ports fot HTTP/S.
    With default ports you could go with local host overrides and get rid of NAT reflection.

    you can use haproxy in this scenario listening on wan and lan instead of opening ports/creating a nats for each pod in Kubernetes, well if you have a couple of pods it doesn't really matter but since I have 50 services running in test / 50 in staging / 50 in production on Kubernetes behind pfsense it would be unmanageable without haproxy for me

    What is logged when that happens?

    How is UPnP configured?

    What pfSense version is that?

    okay - thanks. I've updated the default gateway to be a new gateway group that prioritizes cable over cell phone but has the cell phone in tier 2. I'll see what that does the next time the cable connection fails.

    Thanks for all the help!

    @johnpoz Well Just figured it out. It was UNRAID SERVER Problem ..

    So for people using UNRAID and having pfsense in VM and sharing a folder. PFSENSE has nothing to do with it you need to configure your unraid and then map your address where the sharing folder exists.

    For instance in windows I had to map the drive for example: \200.200.1.30 (unraid server addy) (this is not my real address but you get the picture) and boom you get access to that folder you wanted to share. OMG 5 hrs later found easy solution but thanks for clearin up the pfblocker has nothing to do with it..

    It seems that it doesn't work. Probably I would have to cancel my contract.
