        Yes, for pfSense. pfBlocker will not care about networks by default. Just ensure that the ASUS interface is selected in "Outbound Firewall Rules".

            @viragomann What I do not understand, for example on Asus router DCHP server switched off and me thought that devices connected to Asus router should have IP in range from DCHP of pfSesne router. Let's say 192.168.20.122 can you please explain this? or could be better to leave DCHP server on ASus router ON?

              Pulling an IP from pfSense would only work, if the Asus router supports DHCP relaying. But I don't think, that it has this option.

              DHCP requests don't pass a router otherwise.

              If not, you will have to enable the DHCP server on the router.
              Or you set it into AP mode (layer 2 bridge) if possible. In this case you would have to change the rules back to Asus subnet sources.

                    No, this would set clients DNS to the routers IP.
                    As DNS server enter the IP of pfSense, presuming you're running DNS resolver or forwarder.

                      @viragomann How better in this config connect router and pfSense ? pfSesne LAN to router WAN or LAN? or doesn't matter? Because me filling very small delays when browsing now! Do not understand the cause of this. Looks like delay in dns resolving

                        The wifi is possibly bridged to the LAN ports. So when connecting to the LAN, the wifi clients are in the same L2 with pfSense.
                        It this is the case you would be able to use the DHCP on pfSense.

                        However, I'm not expecting, that there is a measurable delay, when you connect to its WAN.

                          @viragomann Hello again, everything is working fine. But sometimes have a delay in opening sites, like 1,2 sec delays. Looks like resolving delay. Could you please give a tip, what to check? Here are my settings:
