http://forum.m0n0.ch/index.php/topic,2199.15.html Follow this guide maybe it helps. Beaware that igmproxy isalready in pfSense and is a patched version for working better.

ok, What I forgot to mention is, I'm anticipating the change of our internet line, and might need a decent firewall instead of routers installed now. And I like the package approach of pfsense. is it possible to use pfsense now as squid/squidgard, and after use is a firewall/router ? My main problem is that I cannot setup pfsense as a NATrouter for the moment, but I'd like to force traffic from workstations to go through pfsense to filter/av/monitor what's going on my network. is that possible ? Any hint from where to start ?

jimp, thanks, that is all I was looking for, a simple estimate or basic idea other than when its ready. I must say, this must be a big deal. I don't ever remember at anytime pfsense has not had at least some sort of new beta or RC every other month, so pushing into over a year must mean this new version is going to be somewhat different. I personally have not looked at the 2.0 betas or anything, but if we see an RC by the end of the year that would be awsome. Maybe the RC can be the 2010 Christmas present such as 2.0 going into beta in 2009 ;) Thanks again for your reply.

I can't really say how to fix your ISP issue, it may be a DNS issue, use Google's DNS instead, 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4. Disabling bogons may also help.

Oh lawdy I just had to replug the modem while pfsense was on… which is also stupid, because it worked great on my laptop or any other pc, oh well... that's 4 hours wasted  :P

What are the specs of your pfSense box? Then- Id wonder if you have enough states set…  "System/Advanced/Firewall Maximum States" Default is 10,000. Look at "Status/System/State Table Size" and see what that reports during your test.

Hard to say what might have happened. Might need to see a copy of the config from after configuring the VLANs and before rebooting, if there is any way to get it.

@hassankazmi: If i give static IP on client side i remain unable to access internet services. Not a DHCP issue then, unless you have the DHCP server set to only allow certain clients in an 'allow' list.

I decided to just try a fresh install.  Thanks anyways.

Also might be interesting to see if there are errors on the NIC stats.

this appears using a draytek in half bridge mode, but this way will work….... On Pfsense 2.0 it shows the assigned isp gateway that is on a diferent subnet then it doesnt work........ How to put pfsense 2.0 behaving like 1.2.3 i.e show up ""link!" instead of the isp gateway not on the subnet making everything fail.. Regards

Actually, this is hilarious! Thank you very much for the squid advice as well. I'll look into it!
