No internet on connected Nordvpn after password change

fin1000

Just spent several days pulling out hair attempting to fix a problem with my vpn operation
Have two vlans on cisco350 via trunk to UniFi lite
Plus hard wire ports for straight out to Comcast and nordvpn
All was well for years as set up

Tried to set up with new Nordvpn password (required)
NOTHING ELSE CHANGED

First few hours screwing around looking logs and talking to support at Nord got nowhere

Then all of a sudden the vpn showed as running and connected to the server

BUT no internet

Ping from the box on the vlan interface both for name and numbers from iPhone
Ping lite from iPhone give garbled response with long time and 10% missing

Have no idea what’s going especially since nothing else was changed even by accident

I remember I had this same problem on another instance which only has vpn connection and that resolved itself eventually

Has anyone got any ideas as I built this box a long time ago an have forgotten all I learned to build the thing and it’s driving me crazy

Something changed, but they forgot to tell you about it.
Example : read https://forum.netgate.com/topic/186580/dns-suddenly-broken-on-some-vlans?_=1712331931965

and no, I'm not having my anti N*rdVPN crusade, but this is the third time I posted this link just today. I don't use there services. I rarely need a VPN anyway and if I need one, I use my own.

@Gertjan
Thanks for the update
Still driving me crazy!
Trouble is ping is fine from all the interfaces in the box but there’s no internet on the vlan WiFi nor Ethernet
As you said working before and not after password/namechange
Trouble is I can’t see anything thing in any of the. Logs to suggest where exactly it’s getting “blocked “
There’s obviously udp/tcp connection to the interface insider pfsense to the remote server or ping would fail
Also support at Nord is not very supportive
