        @stephenw10 tried that, doesn't seem to help.

        For some additional strangeness, after I reboot it doesn't have an IP on the WAN. I can "Renew" and it pulls an IP but I still don't have upstream connectivity.

        If I go to the WAN interface and make a change and click "Apply", then I have upstream connectivity. This seems strange. I know I need to try this with the router plugged directly into the modem, but is there a reason this wouldn't work as a client on the Google WiFi network?

          Check the logs when you do that. What is actually happening? I imagine it relinks the WAN and pulls a new lease.

          As long as the connected wifi bridge passes at layer 2 DHCP should work.

                    My issue was only present when there was a power failure.

                    Where my ISP router was slower to start than the pfSense , so the Wan interface on the ISP router wasn't ready , when pfSense wanted an ip address.

                    I "cheated" , and set a static address instead.

                      @bingo600 Not sure I can use a static IP for my ISP back home. I could try it here though and see what happens. No power issue in my scenario. I reboot the router and it doesn't pull an IP from my Google WiFi network. Will try plugging directly into the modem, but not sure it will make a difference.

                        How exactly is it connected? Just to the main router or via some wifi bridge/extension?

                          Agree
                          I think the problem is if pfsense can not contact the ISP DHCP on the WAN interface, it assumes it has a lease and never tries to contact the ISP DHCP server again. This leave pfsense in an erroneous state.

                          The only solution for which involves external user intervention to force a WAN lease negotiation.

                            As stephen mentions:
                            Please explain how , ant to what - Your pfSense Wan (IGB0) is connected.

                            Also .. Can you cheat ?

                            Do you have a "dummy switch" you could insert between the pfSense wan , and the ISP device ?? (Just those two connections)

                            Purpose :
                            To make IGB0 interface "available/UP" at pfSense boot.
                            If the interface is UP , then the DHCP Client task might not EXIT.
                            And you might be able to adjust DHCP timing, to fit the possible delay.
                            But from the log it seems we're talking a few seconds, no adjustment might be needed.

                            My issue could be solved worked around.
                            By physically disconnect the WAN PDS , wait a few secs , and connect it again. Would trigger the DHCP Client task once again.

                            Does that work for you too ?
                            Please try & report

                            That was not an acceptable solution for me , but it gave some insight in what happened ...

                            @stephenw10
                            Why is the DHCP WAN Client task not looping forever , even if the WAN IF is physically down , that might solve the issue.

                            Or a "configurable" DHCP WAN Client "Sleep #secs" before executing DHCP Client.

                              Imo that is the only real solution.

                              Faults upstream can happen at any time and be of any duration. Pfsense should be forever polling to detect the recovered wan interface with out requiring someone physically visit the site and manually force a renegotiation.

                              Thinking back I have had to manually recover from this in two circumstances

                              1. Power recovery to nbn (cable to Ethernet modem) simultaneously with power to pfsense router. The modem synching slower than pfsense boot up.

                              2. Upstream ISP outage. Wan DHCP comes back online but pfsense is no longer polling it.

                              Both required manual user intervention.

                                That's pretty much what it's supposed to do. It won't run on an interface that is down but should run as soon as it comes up. That's what happens when you replug the WAN.

                                  From a user perspective, the problem is the interface gets it self in a state where the user needs to unplug then replug in the WAN Ethernet cable.

                                  Perhaps the edge case I'm encountering is the Ethernet line on my modem can be up when the WAN DHCP is not accessible. A situation which if persists results in pfsense establishing a lease on the WAN line without an IPv4 gateway address (supplied by the ISP DHCP). Isolating pfsense from the internet.

                                  In Australia there is effectively two ISP further exacerbating the issue. The link to the exchange is owned and run by NBN, the subsequent link and DHCP is owned by the ISP the user chooses. As a result he cable modem being up is not synonymous with the ISP WAN DHCP being accessible.

                                    Mmm, the interesting thing here is that in the vast majority of cases dhcp pulls a lease as expected. If it fails to find a dhcp server it just keeps trying. If you boot without the WAN connected it will pull as lease as soon as it's connected.
                                    So it looks like what's happening here must be some timing issue. For whatever reason the WAN is not linked when rc.bootup tries to initialise it so it fails. But it then becomes linked without triggering a new dhclient process on WAN. I would guess because bootup is still running rc.linkup is not called.

                                    @RyanM When you generated that log was it only pfSense that was rebooted? The upstream router was not? Yet it still hadn't linked by that point?

                                      dhcp.log :

                                      At 11:39:41

                                      Feb  4 11:39:41 router php[392]: rc.bootup: The command '/sbin/dhclient -c /var/etc/dhclient_wan.conf igb0 > /tmp/igb0_output 2> /tmp/igb0_error_output' returned exit code '1', the output was ''

                                      but it fails (probably : WAN (and LAN for that matter) are not ready yet ; no interface 'WAN' bind to. dhclient fails.

                                      edit :
                                      Or something like :
                                      /etc/inc/interfaces.inc : line 40 :

                                      	pfSense_interface_flags($interface, IFF_UP);

                                      this line fires for "WAN" but it takes several (5 ... ) seconds to take effect, to late for dhclient.
                                      edit end.

                                      Or, 5 seconds later, igb0 (WAN) and igb1 (LAN) are coming up :
                                      At 11:39:44 (3 seconds later) :

                                      Feb  4 11:39:44 router check_reload_status[374]: Linkup starting igb0
Feb  4 11:39:44 router kernel:
Feb  4 11:39:44 router kernel: igb0: link state changed to UP
....
Feb  4 11:39:45 router check_reload_status[374]: Linkup starting igb1
Feb  4 11:39:45 router kernel: igb1: link state changed to UP

                                      My theory : dhclient has been fired up just to early. And for the rest of the duration of "rc.bootup" interface LINK events are not acted upon ( ? ).

                                      At Feb 4 11:39:51 (7 seconds later) :

                                      Feb  4 11:39:51 router root[10534]: Bootup complete

                                      Let's give 'dhclient' a second chance, at the end of the main bootup script, as it was just a couple of seconds to early with launching dhclient.
                                      Install this lightweight pfSense package :

                                      The command to copy paste :

                                      /sbin/dhclient -c /var/etc/dhclient_wan.conf igb0 > /tmp/igb0_output 2> /tmp/igb0_error_output

                                        Yes, I would expect that to work.

                                        It's interesting that you are hitting this at all though. There is something unusual happening in the link timing,

                                          The dhcp and system logs.

                                          Happened again for me so I collected some data just in case it helps identify the problem

                                          Summary

                                          • pfsense 2.5.2-RELEASE (amd64)

                                          • No internet connection confirmed from about 20:15
                                          • Internet connection restored by pfsense -> Status -> interfaces -> WAN interface -> Release WAN

                                            @patch said in WAN does not renew after reboot:

                                            pfsense -> Status -> System logs -> System -> General (redacted - MyWanIP, MyWanGateway, MyWanBroadcast.255)
                                            Log - System - after Release WAN - Redacted.txt
                                            pfsense -> Status -> System logs -> System -> DHCP (redacted - MyWanIP, MyWanGateway, MyWanBroadcast.255)
                                            Log - DHCP - After Release WAN - Redacted.txt

                                            The system log :
                                            In less then 10 minutes your have more then 10 WAN cable disconnect / connect event :

                                            Change that cable (bad cable or bad plugs ?), or change (swap with LAN) the WAN NIC - or use another or new NIC for WAN.

                                            This might also explain why it takes 'ages' to "software activate" the interface, just before the dhcp client is launched. It takes to much time to active.

                                            Feb 8 20:28:36 dhclient 17482 bound to MyWanIP -- renewal in 900 seconds.

                                            The ISP gives you a 900 seconds lease. That means the renewal will take place every 7 and a half minute.
                                            This isn't wrong, it works, but creates a lot of IP re negotiation. IMHO : that's not ok - but you can't do anything about that.
                                            Your are using 4G/5G or Wifi or comparable as a ISP access ?
                                            "normal" DHCP lease duration is more like a day or several days.
