        @robmontreal The pending status is probably because it can't ping the gateway either (?). In System/Routing you can edit the gateway and check "Disable Gateway Monitoring" but that's a bit of a hack. Does the ISP router normally respond to pings?

        Is your WAN DHCP?

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

          @steveits Hey Steve, i do not think my isp router normally responds to ping, i would have to reconnect the old router to check as everything works with old router.

          My WAN is DHCP.
          The pending was because i had the wan disconnected, my bad... it shows good now....
          Can i provide more screen shots for you?

          Thanks..

            @robmontreal OK so that's a public IP at least. If you can't ping the .1 gateway then either that gateway doesn't respond to pings, or there's some weird routing going on, or there's a firewall rule blocking your ping, etc. That shot shows the gateway online though so it seems like the monitoring did ping it...

            Is anything set in System/Routing/Static Routes?

              @steveits Ok, so I can ping the gateway just to confirm.

              Nothing in static routes, its empty.

              This is getting weird.

                I can ping the gateway

                tracert 8.8.4.4

                and see how far you get. If you can get to the gateway it ought to be working.

                It's not a DNS issue is it?

                    @steveits Is it easy to revert back to 22.01 version?

                    This issue is getting annoying... :)

                      @robmontreal You can reinstall:
                      https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-2100/reinstall-pfsense.html

                      192.168.0.1 is the LAN of your pfSense? It sounds like it doesn't want to route out. Does Diagnostics/Routes show a default route? Yet, the gateway is pingable...which might make sense if there is no default route.

                      Does System/Routing have a default gateway set? (black globe icon)

                            rather than leave as automatic in gateway i selected WAN_DHCP

                            I vaguely recall having to do that several years ago somewhere due to a bug, but it's not normal. The docs talk about it selecting the wrong gateway...

                              Just to complete this post, as I deleted some screenshots with IP in them.

                              This problem is SOLVED

                              "I ended up setting the WAN gateway to WAN_DHCP as it was set to none."

                              And then everything started working as it should.

                              Thanks to all that helped me out.

                              Have a great day!
