  • Thanks Mike for the great network diagram.

    You are able to ping 8.8.8.8 but XG does not resolve DNS names (even from console)?

    What DNS your XG are using? Check them inside Network > DNS and let us know. What DNS are your internal computers using?

    If they are using external DNS, make sure an allow DNS rule exists.

    Regards

  • I can do this, but i would like to show you my settings, im attaching the firewall rules, bridges, gateways and there are a red dot on gateways, i dont know what to do :S

     

    Thanks for the help.

     

  • Mike,

    send me a PM and I will have a look at your XG.

    Regards

  • I adviced Mike to use XG in routing mode, by

    • removing all the configured bridge
    • using VLAN on LAN physical port (router on the stick)
    • Removing even the Tplink router and connecting the 2 ISP interfaces to 2 differente XG physical ports
    • Using XG DHCP server on VLAN
  • additional to the case:

     

    thanks for all your help. I was able to make it work, what i did was to erase my second bridge as you suggested, and use one of my available ports into my first bridge but in the wifi zone, then i create a new firewall rule for source wifi zone with captive portal, so it worked :)

     

    thanks a lot!

     

  • Hi Mike ,

    We are Glad you were able to resolve the issue , Just a Note to add and apologies for the delay . If your WAN interface has 1 Gateway with the same device the MAC host is constant factor and on XG you you cannot use two interface that would point to the same Gateway . In this case only one will be active and another will not be active . Also the Arp entry would also be affected on the Router on the WAN interface . Our recommendation you may use a Single interface an if you have multiple addresses you may add a Alias .
