      Hi,
      I'm new to pfSense, but this error makes no sense to me

      • The IP of the WAN interface is static, 192.1068.1.253/24
      • I use the box as a router, its internal IP is 192.168.1.254/24
        When I try to add the box as a gateway to the WAN interface, I get the above message.
        I'm (very, use it for over 20 years) familiar with FreeBSD, also familiar with networking, but I don't understand this message, which is for me inadequate
        Thanks for help,
        Regards,
        Xavier
        PS the routing table has indeed no default route :

        Typo perhaps?

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

            Stupid me !
            I didn't notice that the CIDR popup near the WABN address was by default /32. Setting it to /24 fixed the problem
            Sorry
