can't update pfsense or install packages
-
@Dobby_ any ideas ?
-
You are still seeing DNS resolution errors?
Can you ping out by IP directly?
-
@stephenw10 yes even after a fresh install
-
So, yes, you are still seeing DNS errors.
Can you ping out by IP directly?
-
@stephenw10 dns resolution works fine though
-
-
So what do you see if you run?:
pkg-static -d update -

@mrrobot said in can't update pfsense or install packages:
No route to host
Ok, so it has no route. Check Diag > Routes. Make sure there's a valid default route.
Steve
-
@stephenw10 how do i know that the default route is valid ?
my wan interface ip is the one ending with 228 and its a public ip
looks like my isp giving me x.x.x.228 defaulting to a x.x.x.229 gateway
-
That looks valid. Does the gateway show as up?
Do you have an IPv6 address on any interfaces?
It could be trying to use IPv6. Try setting 'Prefer IPv4' in Sys > Adv > Networking.Steve
-
@stephenw10 thank you
Gateway looks fine & Prefer IPv4 over IPv6 is checked
-
And it's still failing with 'no route'?
It could be something upstream returning no-route. Try to ping pkg01-atx.netgate.com directly.

@stephenw10 the ping works fine

Aha! Well that is almost always something blocking it.
Are you running Snort or Suricata? pfBlocker maybe? Check it's not blocking that traffic.

@stephenw10 i had to google all this tools to know about em, i don't have any of these
the router had only the os installed, i have been unable to install nothing else -

Something is blocking it. Do you see anything in the firewall logs?
