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.

That makes sense. Thanks all!

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 Searchdaimon is unfortunately quite outdated and it seems, that the devs are not working on this project anymore.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..

I'm up and running!!! I realized after a Youtube video that I needed to use Rufus not Unebootin for my ISO to work properly. I just want to say thanks for everyones help. ;D

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

Use different subnets first. 10.0.1.0/24 for servers for example 192.168.1.0/24 for client workstations. Only open up ports between 10.0.1.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24 that are required for communication between the clients and the applications on the servers. You'll need a layer 2/3 switch at each location to manage your VLANs and/or the subnets.

@marjohn56: Strange. Have you tried changing the port that OpenVPN is using, usually it's something around 1155, try another port. When you say turn off, you mean disabled or with no sessions? I will try a different port and see how that goes, yes i disabled openvpn and the v6 box downloaded the epg no problem, I am having to do this every week in order to keep it working, but it would be great if I didn't have to!

Please make a feature request here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/issues

you can try it with untagged vlans and see if what kind of difference that makes if any.

It was a 64bit before and after I downloaded and installed it on a USB pen drive for installing again it is working now. Thank you.
