    What is your WAN interface like? DHCP, Static?

      It's static, otherwise I wouldn't have to configure the gateway :-)

        That is mighty odd, that is a well supported configuration. If you have both a IPv4 gateway and a IPv6 Gateway on the WAN interface and both of them selected default it should just work.

        That makes no sense.

        Do the system logs report anything about gateway issues?

          I don't have native IPv6 so the v6 gateway isn't on the WAN interface. I think that the gateway issue might be related to the apinger errors, as far as I understand it pfSense checks the gateway to see that it's available with apinger, and if there is a problem with the gateway it may not activate it. But these are pretty wild guesses based on the fact that manually adding a gateway works, but not from pfSense GUI.

                There was a issue with the config.xml.

                The IPv6 gateway was tied to the wrong interface, the DMZ.
                The IPv6 interface was missing the defaultgw tag. Because the wrong interface was selected it probably never saved.

                If the IPv6 default gw is wrong it fails to set the IPv4 default route, that does need resolving, need to figure out why it doesn't apply first.

                  Yes, disregard the IPv6-problem for now, but currently the tunnel is terminated in the DMZ. The issue is that the v4 gateway doesn't work.

                    I've sent you a fixed config that works?

                        It still doesn't work for me, but I have added the IPv4 and IPv6 gateways manually. When I have the time I will do a fresh install and restore the configuration and see if it works better.
