ok, that makes sense. Thanks!

@sullrich: 1. Add your script to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ 2. The script must end in .sh 3. chmod a+rx /usr/local/etc/rc.d/scriptname.sh This is what I have done - and it does not work - but my script runs in an endless loop - maybe this is the problem? Bye, eweri

I have a similiar unresolved problem…..  http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,7103.0.html

You'll need to do a full install: http://devwiki.pfsense.org/FullInstallOnWRAP

It works very nicely.  Expect the beta versions after 1.2 is released.

Good to hear! Keep us informed if further problems arise.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of doing the same thing as what you said, the only difference will be that I will use WAN2. My WAN1 connection is used for other things like https :) The thing that I'm a bit concerned about is opening up a port to the lan just so that skype can transfer its files. I feel like its leaving a massive hole in the firewall. Here is my current setup I'm using pfSense-1.2-RC3-Embedded                             _________ line1--modem---WAN1=PPPOE---|        |                             | PFSENSE |--LAN Line2--Cheap router---OPT1--|_________|  |                                         WLAN I hope that's the type of info you were after.

Hi ;) Version of pfSense? Hardware in use? As for spotting other DHCP servers, the clients will list the DHCP server they used.  If that IP isn't one assigned to your pfSense host then that may be your problem.  From your description however it is most probably a bad switch.

Thanks guys. I figured out the problem. It was a bad qos rule that stops the packets. No problem with the Realtek card. Thanks once more LHRT

well it is documented in the GUI: Disable webGUI anti-lockout rule By default, access to the webGUI on the LAN interface is always permitted, regardless of the user-defined filter rule set. Enable this feature to control webGUI access (make sure to have a filter rule in place that allows you in, or you will lock yourself out!). Hint: the "set LAN IP address" option in the console menu resets this setting as well.

I am also been looking in the forum for taht topick with no luck, would be great to get some informations and time line! Thank's in advance

I have a similar setup. You should use a AP only device, 2.4 g,b I use a linksys about $50 Very nice, never have a problem with it it up 24-7 with no lock up like some others in the market. The reason is to take the load off you file server especially if you use a software RAID setup like i do. and/or it allows you to place the wireless ap in the center of your home or office for equall coverage with out the expense of RF cables and Antennas. and if your ap ever burns up your file server will still be running just my 1/4 of a cent thought happy networking

I tried enabling the filtering bridge option and disabling…same problem.

pfSense will do what you want, but how fast it moves packets will depend on the hardware you chose (as has been discussed in many threads).  That same limitation applies to any other choice of router software.

WEIRD  ??? ??? Changing the MTU to 1400 solved the problem. See there : http://m0n0.ch/wall/list-dev/showmsg.php?id=17/46 Now I must find a more standard way to solve this problem.
