Wow I can't believe it took me a month before I could really sit down and try anything with this again, after upgrading PFSENSE router and getting smart managed switches and other stuff.
Since the last post the CenturyLink Router had to be replaced for some reason it and the TV box(which was replaced also) was causing the phone call id incoming to not display on the TV via the original TV box/ router combo they gave us. Tech seemed to think some firewall settings I supposedly set in the CL router caused the issue… DMZ'ing one port/device. Right. I rarely get lucky enough to have a tech with network background come by. they have been general techs.
Purchased a switch with igmp snooping, basically a smart managed switch.
This switch told me today that there does not appear to be any VLAN's coming from the CL Fiber Modem, and also allowed me to identify the IP ranges for IGMP. None of which I have seen online.
IP Address VLAN ID
239.192.28.15 1
239.192.48.25 1
239.231.0.20 1
I assume no vlan atm because no difference in the way anything worked with and without the managed switch in between the CL Router. or my PFSense router. Creating vlan 201 coming from CL Modem and untagging the router side port caused there to be no connection.
Speed tests today using various sites with my PFsense router connected to the CL Modem gave me upwards of 900+ up and down depending on testing location.
IGMP Proxy, Firewall Wan, Firewall Lan, screenshots attached.
I factory reset settings today. Reconfigured no difference.
Status is that it still works for about 5 or so seconds and then stops streaming stations.
Types of IGMP messages I have received
The source address 192.168.10.57 for group 239.255.255.250, is not in any valid net for upstream VIF. <<<< very common first ip is always internal(as far as i can tell) to my network and not the tv box
select() failure; Errno(4): Interrupted system call <<< rare
Some other generic messages before it was configured right.
Now when I am going through the CL router the Switch snooping shows the multiple IGMP addresses(as mentioned above), it also shows 239.255.255.250 but that is only from my laptop connected to the switch looking at the interface so going to say it doesn't count.
So Modem > Switch(snooping IGMP) > CL Router = TV works, phone call ID works on TV box Internet works etc.
But when I go through my PFsense router it doesn't show any IGMP going through at all.
So Modem > Switch(snooping IGMP not seeing any IP's coming through) > PFSENSE = TV stations for 5 seconds or so when channel is changed, Phone ID works on TV box, Internet works etc.
Now my assumption is my IGMPPRoxy is either not configured right or broken somehow.
What other configuration information do you wonderful people need from me to troubleshoot.
I do want to / am going to try a full on factory image factory reset of my PFSENSE router in case at some point I messed up something that upgrading between versions wont fix for some reason.
