Access Point Admin portal different subnet help?
-
Switch Outbound NAT to Hybrid mode.
Add a new rule on the VoIP interface.
Source: network 192.168.1.0/24
Destination: network (the AP IP)/32Leave everything else as the defaults.
But you really should be able to allow the AP to reply directly to this and doing that would be a much nicer solution.

We are assuming you're trying to actually access the AP directly here but that is that a centrally managed device? Some sort of cloud management portal?
That's a real AP though. I'm sure it can be configured to allow access from a different subnet.
-
This worked great thank you :)
-
There is an option to set a gateway on the AP maybe this is it? I am scared if I set it to anything other than 192.168.3.1 I will lose access and have to factory reset.

TpLink wants you to use there controller localhost software to manage APs on different subnets it looks like. That is what they told me to use.But the NAT outbound has it working which is good enough for me :)

what is pfsense IP address, why would you have it set anything other then your gateway - which I was assuming was pfsense. But yeah if its gateway is something else, then no wonder you can not talk to it through pfsense without the outbound nat - its sending it reply to its gateway.
-
To access pfSense I log into 192.168.1.1
I have one nic setup to 192.168.1.1/24
and one nic setup to 192.168.3.1/24
the other two nic's are not being used or assigned.
The POE switch is plugged into the 192.168.3.1 nic and the AP into a port on it, I assume that is why the AP assigned a 192.168.3.1 gateway?
So should this be set to 192.168.1.1 instead of 192.168.3.1?
-
@cgi2099 no the gateway would be 3.1 so its not that your ap doesn't know how to talk back, it just chooses not too..
-
Yup, that ^.
3.1 is the correct gateway. If it had no gateway at all it wouldn't have a route.
It must be blocking access based of the source.But if OBN is working for you....
