      Hello everyone.

      I'm trying to upgrade my pfSense instance from version 2.6.0 to 2.7.0.

      The instance is running on a Proxmox VE hypervisor with virtio storage and virtio network interfaces. Everything is working fine on version 2.6.0.

      The upgrade was successful, but I noticed a huge issue on the WAN interface, which is marked as up after the upgrade, but no traffic pass through it at all, so the CARP inteface remains on INIT status:

      All others interfaces are working properly, with their own respective CARP interfaces in the MASTER status.

      The interface is marked as up in the interface status:

      But no traffic works out of this network connection (ping also returns 100% packet loss to the default gateway IP address):

      After I rolled back to the previous 2.6.0 version everything worked fine like before, with the WAN interface up and working properly again and the CARP interface shown as MASTER.

      Could you please help me find the problem and how to fix it?

      Thank you very much for your help!

        Probably a route-to issue. There were several issues there fixed between 2.7.0 and 2.7.2.

        Is that you only WAN interface? Can you see 2.7.2 available?

          @stephenw10 yes, it’s actually my only WAN interface.

          Why other interfaces are working properly?

          Is there a way to upgrade directly to 2.7.2?

          Thank you!

            You could install 2.7.2 clean and restore a config into it.

            Otherwise I would check the routing table and gateway config.
