  • Modifying the /var/chroot-dhcpc/etc/default.conf (and eth1.conf) did no good - I did take the interface down then up again, as well as rebooted the UTM and modem.

    Looking at the logs, eth1 (WAN) is having a problem getting a DHCP address from the modem.

    from system.log

    (I've looked up solutions to this problem, and none helped.  It's possible I missed a solution out there somewhere however)

    I messed around with the timeout, modified the speed.  I'm at a loss here when "all" that was done was a firmware change.  I am temped to just nuke the thing and reload the iso image and my backup configuration.  But I want to learn from this.

  • Well, now I'm stumped, my case might not have to do with the latest update after all.  I rolled back the firmware and restored my settings - same thing - WAN link is down.


    My WAN link won't even come up from the bare bones installation.  This appears to be a common problem, yet I can't find a solution.

  • Disconnect your firewall from the modem, power down your firewall, power down your modem and leave your modem powered down for 1 minute.  Restore power to the modem and let it completely boot.  Plug the firewall back into the modem and power up the modem.  Leave your WAN link in automatic mode do not set a speed and duplex.  See if that gets you back.

    UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!!  I wasted several days on this! :(  Turns out all I had to do was wait a measly minute.


    Thanks

  • Yup no problem. Modems will typically only attached to one MAC address and a basic quick reboot for some reason doesn't clear them.  Always good to do a good long power off when messing around with settings.  Also, setting the WAN NIC to gigabit or full duplex can be an issue.  Always use Auto negotiation unless you are hard setting both sides of the network cable.
