WhatsApp calls do not connect after upgrade 2.5.2 -> 2.6.0

With these networks white listed, the captive portal clients do not need to login to the portal before they use app like Whatsapp-"phone".
Is that what you want ?

If the provided patch is applied to 2.6.0., WhatsApp is working also without adding those networks in the section "Allowed IP addresses". For example, if you want to use the Captive Portal function.

@refugeesonline said in WhatsApp calls do not connect after upgrade 2.5.2 -> 2.6.0:

If the provided patch is applied to 2.6.0.,

Exact. without the patch, UDP and ICMP traffic was 'stuck'.

Adding networks to Services > Captive Portal > ZONE > Allowed IP Addresses wouldn't help you to solve that issue.

So, applying the patch is needed to give the captive portal network access to the Internet.

Adding networks to Services > Captive Portal > ZONE > Allowed IP Addresses will bypass the captive portal authentication for these networks/IPs.

This is not related to the subject : "WhatsApp calls do not connect after upgrade 2.5.2 -> 2.6.0"

Again : is this what you want ?
And, for my own curiosity : why ?

Thanks for your guide. I followed your steps, by installing the recommended system patch and also applying the custom patch.

Whatsapp calls now works fine on my Pfsense 2.6.0
