      ótimo dia, eu aconselho você voltar a versão anterior, porque eu fiz também a atualização do pfsense em laboratório, deu tudo certo mas tem bugs do captive portal no pfsense 2.6, na verdade o pfsense 2.6 com captive portal ativado e cheio de bugs, ate então não atualizei de nenhum cliente, vou esperar eles corrigir esse bug, na verdade o bug e a seguinte forma, ele não libera as portas, não deixa pingar se você não liberar o ip no captive portal, sites não abre, claro isso depende de cada projeto que no meu caso uso proxy transparente junto com captive portal, não deu certo na versão do pfsense 2.6.

        @bagherif Install the latest System Patches package and install:
        Fix Captive Portal handling of non-TCP traffic after login (Redmine #12834)

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

              Navigate to System > Packages, Available Packages tab.
              Find System Patches in the list.
              Click "+Install" at the end of its row, then confirm, to install.

              The documentation for this package is still in the Development section and does not yet describe the new version, but the 2.x package will have a list of recommended patches. Just click Apply:

                  hi everybody. I installed an new pfsense aplliance and did an import from the old applicance (2.5.1) I ran into the same issue but I still cannot establish vpn connection to a Microsoft VPN (l2tp) ist there a reboot required aft installing and acticating the patch or Is something else to do? I put a firewall Rule on the LAN Interface which allows all traffic from internal to external but still no luck.
                  Network it self is running using a browser. But ping for example to 8.8.8.8 is blocked
                  We would like to allow our customers everything from internal to external.

                  Thanks in advance for your answer.

                    How does your question relate to the captive portal ?
                    ( you posted in the captive portal section of the forum )

                    A reboot is always mandatory as you changed the kernel version (a kernel can't be reloaded in place).

                    @qssysadmin said in Pfsense 2.6 Captive Portal does not allow vpn connection established:

                    ping for example to 8.8.8.8 is blocked

                    Not an issue.
                    8.8.8.8 replies to DNS requests. No need to ping it.

                    The default LAN firewall rue permits everything. No extra rules needed.

                    No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                    Edit : and where are the logs ??
