      @EmanueleILTK said in Can't no access to some websites:

      it seems to be a firewall problem

      Seems ? You want to protect your source ?

      When you install pfSense, it has one firewall rule **.
      It's on the LAN interface.
      It says : allow all traffic from any source, to any destination, using any protocol using any ports.
      It's a pass-all rule.

      So, if there is a firewall issue, it isn't pfSense. It would be upstream - or down stream.
      Easy to proof, as you can take pfSense out of your network, and you still won't be able to visit these sites ....

      @EmanueleILTK said in Can't no access to some websites:

      I have disabled all blocking rules

      Why would you block yourself to go somewhere ?
      If you don't wana go, don't go.

      ** there are other, hidden firewall rules, like a list with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses that are not routable / non existent IP's etc.

      edit : just to be sure - and to make a long story short :

      Do not enable this :

      Services > DNS Resolver > General Settings >

      7815adb3-7ce9-4d79-9d8b-99f433632cb2-image.png

      For the 'why' part, read the forum, the DNS.DHCP forum.

      No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
      Edit : and where are the logs ??

          And how exactly did you do that? And how exactly are you setup?

          Pfsense (the firewall) doesn't give 2 shits where you go.. Out of the box.. It blocks nothing.. It sure can not tell the difference between siteX.com and siteY.com

          If your having issues accessing a specific site. Then the problem is most likely dns related, or your filtering with IPS, pfblocker, proxy?

          As already mentioned out of the box the outbound rules are any any... Pfsense become a go between.. You send it something that says want to go to 1.2.3.4.. Pfsense says I don't know where that is - send it to my gateway (your isp).. Doesn't care what it is, doesn't know what it is.. With the out of the box setup, pfsense doesn't really even "firewall" other than keeping track of states to know that the return traffic for where you sent something is allowed back and to send it back to you. It keeps track of the states and nat.. But where you go it doesn't care, nor does it block.. If you are having issues with some specific site, then either your isp has an issue getting there, or you just not connected at all. Or your having problems even resolving what IP to go to from the name.. But "firewalling" is not going to be the problem with the default rules.

          I would suggest you validate that you can actually resolve where your trying to do.. nslookup, dig, host, shoot even a ping to the name.. Do you get a response with the correct ip?

          C:\>ping vimeo.com
          
          Pinging vimeo.com [151.101.64.217] with 32 bytes of data:
          Reply from 151.101.64.217: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=57
          Reply from 151.101.64.217: bytes=32 time=11ms TTL=57
          

          When you have a problem access this site, from you machine was does the ping command show you?

            Is it a DNS issue ?
            ( you, as a person, uses "vimeo.com" to go to vimeo.com, but comptures don't understand "vimeo.com", they convert it to 151.101.128.217 first - this is called 'DNS' )

            Does your device (phone, pc etc) converts vimeo.com to an IP ?
            You could receive another IP, as I do a 'DNS' from Europe.
            Not significant, but can you ping that IP ?
            ( I can )

            edit : Well, what @johnpoz said ;)

              For all we know your using a VPN? Are you using the default unbound setup, did you setup forwarding. Is your client using doh for dns - what browser are you using..

              Would love to help you.. But to the details have you have given pretty much is car doesn't work.

              User: So my red car sometimes doesn't start.
              Mech: Like doesn't start when? When its cold, when its out of gas.. When you forget to turn the key? Does it make any sounds? Do the lights come on and you turn the key and what? But then it does start other times???
              User: The blue car starts..
              Mech: <rolleyes> Ugghhhh!

                from shell of firewall server
                Screenshot (7).png

                Screenshot (8).png

                the problem suddenly appears from nothing, was working perfectly fine till two days ago, but sometimes the site it's working
                if it was related to the rules of the firewall it would have never worked

                    Are you using vip on your wan? Did you wan IP change? Can you ping loopback? 127.0.0.1, when this happens.. Your saying that you can not ping just this IP, but every other IP works 1.1.1.1, 4.2.2.2 (other public dns).. Other sites works.. So you can ping say www.netgate.com, but then not vimeo.com, and then www.cnn.com works?

                    This is hardware pfsense, this is not a virtual instance of pfsense?

                    Lets see your routing table? Do you have more than one gateway setup for pfsense?

                    Your not running any sort of IPS, like snort or suricata.. In your log do you see the firewall rules reloaded or loading?

                      I have pfsense version 2.4.5_1

                      The first post states the latest version but your CLI prompt says 2.4.4. Is it a VM which is swapping between versions?

                                    @EmanueleILTK said in Can't no access to some websites:

                                    default 192.168.1.1 UGS re0
                                    dns.google 192.168.1.129 UGHS re2

                                    Well from that.. looks like your sending traffic to google or 8.8.8.8 out a different gateway then what your normal gateway (default) is.

                                    ; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:
                                    ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096

                                    ;; ANSWER SECTION:

                                    ;; Query time: 5 msec

                                    So if you can still ping google, but not other stuff.. Points to an issue with your normal gateway.

                                          And since your using a different gateway for 8.8.8.8 and it works, but something to normal gateway fails.. It shows an issue with your default gateway..

                                          Again what does your log say... If your having issues with a gateway it should be logged..

                                            You are using 8.8.8.8 as a monitoring IP for EOLOGW so traffic will always be statically routed that way. That makes it a bad IP to test against.
