Hi,
I've been using Proxmox for many months with OPNsense running as a VM and, all of a sudden last week, my internet dropped.
My physical hardware has an onboard NIC and an expansion card, both passed through as bridges with one for LAN (vmbr1) and one for WAN (vmbr0). I was troubleshooting and found that as soon as I swapped the PPPOE connection to use vmbr1, the internet came back. So I thought the onboard NIC had a fault and I purchased another expansion card, added this, reconfigured the bridge and reconfigured OPNsense to make sure the WAN was using the vmbr0 but it didn't resolve the issue. Next I removed the vmbr0 bridge and recreated it but still no luck. If I swap any of the VMs to vmbr0, their network stops working. If I set an IP address on vmbr0, I can ping the bridge from a VM using the bridge but I cant ping anything else on the network. The interfaces all look UP and healthy. Any help will be much appreciated as I'm completely stuck as to how this broke and what to do to resolve it. Let me know if there's any more info I can provide and thanks in advance.
This is the interfaces configuration.
