Wan static address problem
-
Hi, i normaly use just a router to connect to my provider, Microwave antenna that i connect directly to my router, all i enter is the ip address, subnet mask ans dns provided by my internet provider in the static wan adress and it work perfectly.
Now i want to remove the router and use only pfsense to connect since i have it installed on a brand new mini pc with dual gigabit rj45 port, but when i enter the ip address, there is no place to enter submask and dns, , i do get a connection but with no internet, i can only communicate within the lan, it looks ok in the wan interface status, please i need help -

but when i enter the ip address, there is no place to enter submask
Mask is here
Where the bit would match up to the mask
255.255.255.0 = 24
255.255.0.0=16
255.255.248.0=21What is your mask suppose to be?
Out of the box pfsense resolves, there is no need for dns to be set. If you need to forward to somewhere dns would be setup in general settings and, and you would set unbound to forward.
If your setting static on wan, you would also need to setup the gateway IP.
