      does anyone know how to reach all of the other subnets in pfsense through your vpn? I have tried pushing a route on the ovpn file but it did not work. Am I missing something? I can only access my Lan and that's it.

        It's all about routes. The client should know the default route to pfSense and pfSense should know or have routes to elsewhere.

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

              Enter all your subnets into the "Local Network/s" field to push the routes for them to the clients.

              But additionally you need to allow access to the subnets with firewall rules on the VPN interface.

                  I didn't realize he was talking about a remote LAN, rather than just a client. He didn't mention that.

                    @jknott that's okay I was not clear at all. I do appreciate you for jumping in! I'm still learning pfsense so this is more knowledge to my library!

                      If you're setting up a client, such as a notebook computer, you just have to use the client export. If you're setting up pfSense on a remote LAN, then you use the client settings.
