LAN client cannot connect

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 if you agree i start with a reset to factory defaults.
right after that i install realtek. after that i would like to do step by step.

[stephenw10]

You just need to set the LAN to a different subnet. I'm not sure how you managed to install the Realtek pkg with conflicting subnets like that. You can start over if you want.

@stephenw10 i try this. in the pc i see the connection icon called network5 but it says "network unavailable". i type 192.168.100.1 is it gets me into the web gui, i load another page like google and it doesn't work.

[stephenw10]

Ok, what does the console show for the interfaces now?

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 wan re1 v4/dhcp4: 192.168.1.101/24 - v6/dhcp6: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
lan re0 v4: 192.168.100.1/24

[stephenw10]

Ok great.

Use console menu option 7 to try to ping out from pfSense to 8.8.8.8. Then test to google.com

If either of those fail what error is shown?

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 "Unable to reach the site
Unable to find the IP address of the duckduckgo.com server.

Try:
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy, firewall, and DNS configuration
Running the Windows Network Diagnostics tool
ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED" on pc when try google.com

side console putting 7 then 8.8.8.8 indicates 3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packets lost.

[stephenw10]

Ok, great so pfSense cannot connect out.

So in the pfSense webgui check Status > Gateways.
I assume it shows 192.168.1.1 as the gateway?
Does it show the gateway as down?

Go to Diag > Routes.
Does it show a default route for IPv4?

[Spectrum]

@Spectrum wan WAN_DHCP6 (default) gateway: xxxxxxx status connect
WAN_DHCP gateway: 192.168.1.xxx status connect
LANGW gateway: 192.168.100.1 status suspended

[stephenw10]

@Spectrum said in Hardware driver:

192.168.1.xxx

That is a private IP address there is no need to obscure it.

@Spectrum said in Hardware driver:

LANGW gateway: 192.168.100.1 status suspended

You should not have a gateway on LAN. Go to Interfaces > LAN and remove it.

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 -General Configuration: enable interface
-Static IPv4 configuration: IPv4 address.
192.168.100.1/24
IPv4 Upstream gateway: none
-Reserved networks: Block private networks and loopback addresses and Block bogon networks (not active).

What exactly should I remove from these?

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 i find how to eliminate gateway lan.. and i do. but pc is offline, life before rete5

[stephenw10]

Ok upstream gateway is correct.

Go to System > Routing > Gateways.

Make sure there is only WAN gateway. Remove a LAN gateway if it shows there.

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 now i see only wan, not see lan in the System > Routing > Gateways.

[stephenw10]

Go to Diag > Routes.
Does it show a default route for IPv4 via the WAN gateway?

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10
i see default re0 (lan)
i dont see default in re1 (wan)

but

if i see ipv6 .. re1 (wan) is default

[stephenw10]

@Spectrum said in Hardware driver:

i see default re0 (lan)

Ok, that's bad. That's why it's broken.

Set the IPv4 default gateway to WAN_DHCP.

The delete the LAN gateway.

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 good morning. last night i turned off pfsense and unplugged the wan cable, today i turned on and plugged the cable in and it gives me connected. i went into the settings it said and it no longer gives me re0 (lan) as default. i don't know what is going on in my settings, but i am sure if i turn off or reboot now it will give me the problem again. how can i save these settings?

IPv4 route
127.0.0.X lo0
192.168.1.X/24 re1 (wan)
192.168.1.XXX lo0
192.168.100.X/24 re0 (lan)
192.168.100.X lo0

Now only in ipv6 I see the wan in default, like this:
IPv6 route
default xxxxxxxx%re1 re1 (wan)

[Spectrum]

@Spectrum although it tells me "connected" pero any site comes up as impossible to access

[Spectrum]

@stephenw10 ok, now i set ipv4 and ipv6 gateway on the wan and it is no longer automatic.
