      I downgraded to pfsense 2.6, made sure the dhcp server was the ISC again. But importing an 2.7 config on 2.6 version of pfsense messed up the firewall config. Luckily I had backups from when I was running 23.05 plus and I was able to import that succesfully. IGMP works as expected again. I will wait for a proper fix for IGMP in version 2.7. Thank you.

        Do you think I can also downgrade to version 2.7.0?
        Because in this version I thought the IGMP proxy still worked without any problems.
        Or were there already problems and I really have to go to 2.6 until this bug is fixed?

          I didn't have any problems prior latest update. But I'm on PF+ instead of CE

            The previous version for me was pf+ 23.05.01 and igmp was functioning fine. With all the changes to the license model I decided to go back to pf CE 2.7. And now back to 2.6 because of igmp bug. If pf+ get's the igmp fix before 2.7 I am jumping the wagon to pf+ again :)

              Same here in PF+

              will give a try to extract the working version from 2.7.0

                    I've also created a separate bug report for the PF+ version to get it on the bug tracker of PFsense+.

                    You can find it here (https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15065) , there is a big chance it will be merged with the 2.7.1 bug report.

                    It would really help to also share your logs and other findings there to help the developers fix this issue.

                      i will do my best. But i can't find the log. My knowledge is to small.
                      I have enabled verbose logging in IGMPProxy but i don't know where i can find the results.
                      Are they normally came in system Log -> general ?
                      Just right now i noticed the:
                      /usr/local/etc/igmpproxy.conf
                      is empty (looks like a copy from default). Is this right ?
                      I expected to see the things i have configured on the web GUI

                              Your ticket has been added to mine and the target version has been set to 2.8.0 and 24.03.
                              https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15043

                              I now hope that these versions will be released as soon as possible.

                                Release 24.03…wow. So the fix is targeted to be here somewhere in the next 6 months orso?

                                Is it possible to run the igmp proxy package from 2.6 on 2.7? That would be a workaround perhaps for the time being.

                                  Release fixes are estimations not hard deadlines. It could theoretically be pushed back for months or years so ive seen.
                                  My advice, If possible, downgrade back to a working pfsense version. Not great advice i grant you but i dont know another solution.

                                  Also i advice people on the following
                                  https://www.netgate.com/supported-pfsense-plus-packages

                                  Firewall: NetGate,Palo Alto-VM,Juniper SRX

                                  Switching: Juniper, Arista, Cisco
                                  Wireless: Unifi, Aruba IAP
                                  JNCIP,CCNP Enterprise

                                    Thanks. I already downgraded tot pfsense 2.6 where everything is working fine. Now I will play the waiting game yes.

                                      My Workaround is far more simple

                                      Just set an cronjob for a time in the morning hours and stay at the CE2.7.1

                                      	/usr/local/sbin/pfSsh.php playback svc restart igmpproxy

                                      This fixes it for the day in my setup

                                        i have done this but in my case it's doesn't help.
                                        These reason is if you change to often between 2 chanals in short time the proxy get messed up.
                                        I will try to install the older working igmproxy

                                            @UlfMerbold said in IGMP proxy no longer works reliably after 2.7.1 update:

                                            My Workaround is far more simple

                                            Just set an cronjob for a time in the morning hours and stay at the CE2.7.1

                                            	/usr/local/sbin/pfSsh.php playback svc restart igmpproxy

                                            This fixes it for the day in my setup

                                            Restarting the igmp proxy works temporarily, but it happens again when changing channels a few times so not really a workable solution here.
