This corroborates my assessment. You were previously in a double NAT situation. You saw your WAN IP on your gateway because your WAN IP was your gateway, not your interface IP. You now see the ISP’s head end IP as the gateway due to IP passthru

What have you been testing from? Laptop pointed to LAN IP, laptop pointed to WAN IP, and cellphone with WiFi disabled pointed to WAN IP?
Good question.
LAN device(s) pointed to WAN IP. LAN devices pointed to LAN IPs resolve fine and display webserver content. Cellphone (no WiFi) pointed to WAN IP does not exhibit the appended Opnsense webui port behavior.
Any suggestions on what to try?
