  • Update: I have installed the wol plugin from opnsense into my machine, you asked if i can send a wol packet though the router and so in my thinking i was able to do it via the plugin. The problem starts on the ARP, i found what it is and what it do but i dont know how i can insert the MAC address into the firewall rule that i created above, if you dont mind could you help me on how can i do it? And if i do that will i be able to send the wol signal though the Wlan or Wireguard in the future? Thanks







  • Yes it’s because I use unbound and Adguard on opnsense, Adguard uses 5353 and unbound uses 53, so in opnsense I went to Services > Unbound DNS > query forwarding and added the IP 10.50.50.0:5353 but even doing that didn’t work on my wireguard config file.

    Thinking more into it the reason that It didn’t work was because unbound is the primary DNS and Adguard would become the secondary DNS, if there was a way to create another IP for unbound I think my problem would be solved, but Im still learning about opnsense so I don’t know how would I do it.

    I bought the Intel Celeron n5105 from some vendor called wooyi store on AliExpress, from what a saw on yt that CPU is a little overkill for a router and it uses too much idle power, but I think it was a good purchase for me bc I don’t plan to switch this router soom. Edit: I’m also thinking between using the onboard wifi card or just buying an wifi AP to use at home, do you have some recommendations?
