    Hi All,

    It is my first time to configure pfsense. After configuration my computer connected to pfsense can access to Internet but the problem is I can't ping yahoo or even my LAN-gateway.

    This is my PFsense Set up:

    WAN Interface  :  ip add = 192.168.1.7/24
                            gateway =  192.168.1.1/24

    LAN Inter :  ip add =  192.168.3.1/24

    computer connected to pfsense:  computer can access the internet but cannot ping the lan-gateway & yahoo.com.

    Please advise..

    Than you.

    Nhiel

      @Nhiel23:

      After configuration my computer connected to pfsense can access to Internet but the problem is I can't ping yahoo or even my LAN-gateway.

      The first four words indicate a potential problem factor.
      Every PC on planet earth has a DHCP client activated by default. The 99 % other devices also.
      So it will obtain an IP/DNS/Gateway as soon as plug in the Ethernet cable.
      Why did you have to configure your computer ?

      What is your LAN-Gateway ? 192.168.3.1 ? If not, detail your config - show us an image - do not hide details.

      Show also the result of a

      ipconfig /all
      

      from your PC.

      pfSense : Interfaces => WAN, Block private networks and loopback addresses must not be checked (192.168.1.0/24 is a reserved for private network)

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