    Would not suggest bridge unless you have no possible other recourse.

    Devices do not need to be on the same layer 2 to use plex..  I access my plex server from any vlan/network I want to allow it from by opening up 32400 from that network to the plex servers IP.. Then just access your plex server direct via its local name or IP.

    If you just want your wireless to be on your lan network - just plug your AP into your switch that your lan is connected to.

    Once again I seem to have found an answer:

    https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/server-on-multiple-vlans-server-not-responding-to-pings-from-non-local-subnets-819880/

    Now I just need to understand it.

    It has to do with traffic being dropped when leaving on a different interface than they arrive at.  I tried to work around a router on a LAN segment issue - but this will also not work.  I will need a dedicated router to make this work :S

    So I have noticed mine crashing too, and then vmware thinks its down, but its kind of up? This is with a new install too, and if I power off via esxi gui, and then unregister it and re register it, and remove the SATA host in the edit options, it seems fine…for a bit. I gave it 4 cpu, and 4gb memory.... still happened a few times before I gave up. This was all in one night :s.

    Heeeey, this is related: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=137628.15
    TLDR: 2.4.1 fixes it.

    Sloved.
    Nothing to do with pfSense setup.
    It is the SG300 managed switch setup, change to an access port with default vlan1. Speed back to normal.

    Yes, in the WAN Interface.
    The changes you made there interfere with the Gateway.

    Guy, like I already said I did a factory reset and used almost all default options except for a few (seemingly) inconsequential options like timezone etc…

    I also said that there was an issue with port labels on the device and interface numbering not matching which meant I was using the wrong ports (LAN and WAN reversed) at first but now I swapped them to the correct position but still had some issues.

    I dont find it a challenge to change LAN address or many other options, but blindly changing options when you dont know how they work is a bad idea. I was confused with some of the options worked like DHCP on LAN. I didnt see seperate DHCP option, that makes sense to me now. Thanks @Grimson for the DHCP explanation.

    Te reason it did work with laptop connected irectl but not over network was bit silly, laptop was connecting to wifi from ISP router before firewall an desktop I tried had static ip (192.168.0.50) when pfsense used 192.168.1.1, so no wonder it didnt work.

    Will try changing the ISP router ip next so my static ip's dont have to change when used with pfsense.

    Hey.. thx for the picture. Great hint with the defined alias for the rfc1918 area.

    Let me get a bit offtopic:
    I have some virtual machines on my ESXI. One of them is for indexing my documents and to provide a search engine,
    I were finally able to get searchdaimon running. Searchdaimon is unfortunately quite outdated and it seems,
    that the devs are not working on this project anymore. The forum has been taken by bots.
    I dont know any powerful opensource/lightweight alternative for this purpose.
    Even i update centos to 6.9 in the VM and tried to get a clean system, so it will a good thing, to block any traffic to the 'WAN' (any) in this described way..

    Not sure why anyone would buy one of those other than to play.  Its obviously not ready for prime time.  Beta at best.

    I think I'm having the same issue with a flaky DSL modem – but registering a SIP trunk with Grandstream PBX (which is an Asterisk flavor).

    I'm not sure that I understood the previous (last) reply: write the script and then call it as the last line in ppp-reconnect?  Does that work for a DHCP WAN connection too?  It's confusing to me that this is the only location (out of 16) that has this problem.

    Thanks!

    Well, can you SSH in?

    If YES, then just restart PHP-FPM.

    If NO, then follow @jimp hint "Try Ctrl-Z and then run /bin/tcsh" => https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=137103.msg754300#msg754300
