Hi Steve!
you are perfeclty right!
I have Dns forwarder enabled, and I've seen the description (under dhcp server -> Dns servers):

NOTE: leave blank to use the system default DNS servers - this interface's IP if DNS forwarder is enabled, otherwise the servers configured on the General page.

but I admit I didn't understand the full meaning: maybe that "dash" misleaded me….  :-[

Thanks again for your reply!!

Thanks, I've applied the patch manually to my systems.

What are you doing that means you can't select option 8?

Steve

Exactly!

The pfSense firewall blocks connections from the WAN interface by default. To access the pfSense webgui from a client connected to the modem/router you need to do two things:
Add a firewall rule to the WAN interface to allow the traffic. This can be quite restrictive, just the your own IP allowed for example.
Make sure you have unchecked 'block private networks' in the WAN setup page. Your WAN is in a private network.

@KOM:

"308% packet loss??  LUXURY!!

I must admit I'm spoiled with my ISP for a home gateway… 160/8 isn't that bad  ;D  But shhh... don't tell them  ;)

Chris was tied up getting the pfSense University training curriculum and related materials ready to go for the first classes, which happened this past Fri/Sat. We're looking into options to make up for the missed hangout, stay tuned.

Arfff…

Ok, If I've correctly understood, I do not use the correct command, I must use /sbin/shutdown -h now, like in Linux.

Thank you KOM.

More guess than insight.  ;)

Steve

Hmmm :(

Well for starters 3380 is not the default port, 3389 is – are you trying to do this from outside from your wan to your lan?  Are you trying this from a lan machine to another lan machine?  If so then pfsense has nothing to do with that connection unless your routing segments on your local network with pfsense?

Lets get some details - what is the ip of source, ip of dest machine - make sure your using the correct port for rdp - 3389 is default, did you change it on dest machine to 3380?  Are you running firewall on dest machine, if so even if coming from other than local network you would have to adjust the built in windows firewall to all for that.

Also if you are attempting from outside your network, and doing a forward - you sure your actually outside - attempting from local lan machine to public IP to get forwarded back in is loopback or reflection - did you enable that in pfsense?

This sounds like your just local "from computer 1 to computer 2." if your going from say 192.168.1.x to 192.168.1.y then pfsense would have nothing to do with that connection..
