Adding default route [0.0.0.0] [0.0.0.0] [nexthop] issue

cesjr

Hi everyone

Can I adding default route by GUI like route add -net -inet 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1. Because after I rebooting pfsense ,the route is no longer exist.

I try to adding route by GUI ,but it is just only choice 0.0.0.0/1 192.168.1.1.
After adding this route , I can ping www.google.com , www.yahoo.com.tw, but when I ping packages.pfsense.org [208.123.78.88], It appears no route to host.

The command with "route add -net -inet 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1." can let me to get https://packages.pfsense.org.
How can I get this function by GUI ..? Thanks every one.

Hi,

Is pfsense providing DHCP in your network?

You shouldn't have to add routes at all in a typical setup. Between DHCP and DNS pfsense can provide all the routing you need.

Please post a diagram of your setup with the your WAN, LAN and addresses, so we can help a little more.

Can you post a diagram of your setup?

It's not clear what your environment looks like
