    My bad, it's 1.2.3. The WAN interface did indeed have an IP/netmask/gateway and DNS servers.  I found out what the problem was, though - my dad said he "didn't like" that the "numbers" (IP addresses) weren't the same as the old router, and changed the LAN and wireless interfaces to the same IP/netmask. Problem solved, password changed. ::)

    I think I get what you are saying here.  So i just move the wireless routers to 192.168.2.0/24 so all of the clients that connect see that subnet.  I setup the CP for that subnet only and everyone who comes in on it gets redirected to the portal….right?  But the trusted clients I can somehow have them passthrough the firewall by MAC or IP (i'd rather do mac). Now the hard part.  i'll bumbble around and see about setting up the passthrough thing.  As for the new subnet...do I need to change the mask for EVERYONE on the whole network to 255.255.254.0 to allow for that new range? or do I go to 255.255.0.0?  As I said earlier, I'm not a network guy...sorry for the dumb question.

    Sorry guys, my fault. Works fine. Next time I shouldn't be so quick to post a thread like this without testing it outside of the network itself first. ;o

    This limitation should no longer be present in the pfSense 2.0 beta snapshots. Give them a try.

    @Cry: Presumably it's specific to your ISP since it if was specific to pfSense this forum would have been flooded with other posts (and I wouldn't have been online for a long time). Could well be - I use Time Warner cable with a dynamic IP. At work I have Time Warner with a static IP and have had no issue. The cron job seems to have fixed the problem for me and others. I'd be glad to provide more details to anyone interested in looking into/correcting the issue.

    I suspect you'll need 4 - 3 for WAN and one for LAN. VIPs is what you're looking for regarding multiple WAN IP addresses.

    You can script that with wget. Some searching here will find scripts and other examples.

    subnetmask.info is a useful site, you tell it how many nodes you need and the base network and it will tell you what subnet mask and other stuff you need.

    You're blocking bogons on your WAN interface which is populated by a file which is regularly updated.  pfSense downloads this file regularly.  That's what you're seeing in the logs.

    There isn't any such build at this time. May be in the future, probably with FusionPBX rather than our Freeswitch package (the creator of which, mcrane, went on to create FusionPBX). There are a lot of people using the Freeswitch package though. Just not an appliance build specifically for it.

    @torontob: 1- I want to know how the backup can be triggered? Would OS boot automatically fall to the second partition if the first fails? 2- Would it be by simply choosing option 2 at boot time? 3- What is the way to set the mirror as the default at start-up? 4- Are the configurations copied between the two mirrors as a system is built? If not, really this other partition is useless and waste of space isn't it? Since, it's probably much more cleaner and might take the same time to re-image the whole thing anyhow. you have to choose it at boot time. yes Diag>Nanobsd there is one shared config partition. It's primarily if you want to upgrade one and have the option to revert back to the previous version. (with caveats for drastically different versions, like 1.2.3 vs. 2.0, where the configs aren't compatible)

    Just remove it. Without the % it logs to just normal plain text files. Be aware, you will have to monitor the logs and either rotate them manually or setup an automated process.
