      Hi folks,

      I'm trying to setup a VPN site-to-site from my network (A: 172.16.0.0/24) to the network of my family (B: 172.16.30.0/24).
      The tunnel is online (10.8.0.0/26), the pfSense can ping the devices in the remote network B, if I'm trying to ping a device in B from a device in A the connection is refused.

      I've already tried to read on the forum and a lot of stuffs seems excatly my case but i've been able to figure it out yet.

      Great Wall (pfSense 2.4.3)
      Asrock H110M-ITX || Intel® Pentium G4400T || Crucial 4GB DDR4 || HP NC360T || CoolerMaster Elite 110
      Bunker (FreeNAS 11.1-U4)
      Supermicro X9SRA || Intel® Xeon® E5-2670 SR0KX 2.60Ghz  || Kingstone _DDR3**-**_16GB ECC || Antec One

      WAN: Vodafone FTTH (D:934mbps - U:195mbps) ~ Ping: 7ms

        How did you set up the VPN? Please give some more details or post all settings.
        Which site is the server, which the client?

          @viragomann B is the server and is a VPN created via TPLINK router that I’m not able to change with custom configurations, A is my client via pfSense.

            The question was, how exactly you did it set up.

            When using a tunnel network bigger than /30, you need to configure a specific client file on the server to route the traffic to the correct client IP.
            If there is a single client only connecting to the server you can also change the tunnel musk to /30 to get it work in a simple way.

              @viragomann ok, the subnet is the only parameter that I can change on the OVPN Server, I will set a /30 and I will let you know
