      ok here is the diagram of what I want to do… basically it the same thing as D-Link DSA-3200 do...
      How would you do that with your product?

        if you have logical bridge you can do that by bridging LAN2 and Wireless togather and applying hotspot to that bridge and then routing the bridge to the WAN

          Sorry, we are again at the point where I don't understand you at all  :o
          That image is even more confusing…

            Can you please draw a correct drawing, what is all this routing and stuff ? Is this all one pfsense box ?

            Where is hotspot in this ? is that captive portal ?

            I mean, this drawing dows not make any sense at all.

              aaaaaa…. im gonna kill myself....

              ok, lets do that in small steps...

              a. what comercial hotspots have u played with?
              b. lets say I want to use LAN2 and Wireless withr the same DHCP, but so that one of the interfacesc could be down and another work independantly... how would I do that?

              c. if I want to have HOtSpot working for both, 1 wireless port and 1 lan port, how would u do that?

                yes hotspot is captive portal…
                the boxes are the ports, either physical or logical
                routing is basic NAT from WAN to local

                  Is this necessary?  If you think you are frustrated then you should take a step back and ponder how we feel receiving this type of behavior.

                  Okay, you mention LAN2 here, and below you are going to mention LAN1.  Any chance that you can get your story straight?

                  Turn the wireless router into bridge mode (not pfsense).  On a lot of linksys models you can simply plug one of the included LAN ports into the pfSense LAN segment and it does exactly what you're looking for.

                  Then hook the wireless router up to the LAN port on pfSense.  I'm still not understanding how a LAN2 comes into play… If you need 2 lans then simply hang a switch off pfSense's LAN port and plug both of the real LANs and Wireless into this.

                    um what is the point to use 2nd device if i have all avelible ports on my curent device… 1 WAN, 2 LAN, 1 Wireless....
                    the point of all of that is that I want to run captive portal for both desktops and wireless from the same device...  + i need to have 1 port that is not beeing identificated...  this is regular setup for alll commersiall products

                    as to the LAN nmaming confusion.... on diagram i just added logical port... so i needed the name for it....

                      Sounds almost like you're doing something that the current code can't handle.  We'll await your patch.

                        You need to be a little more descriptive.  What is the 2nd device you refer to?  The switch?

                          well i can ask my programmers to rwite it, since we where to write full OS on our own, but thats too hard…
                          and even if we will write it for you I have no idea how to integrate it with what you have

                            Second device is the Linsys as you advised….

                                Uhh, if you write it, you'd be integrating it.  Kinda dumb to reinvent the wheel when you can just make it a little rounder.

                                  I want regular setup like Cisco or Dlink or Zyxel

                                        I have them, wanna buy some of them from me? lol…

                                        the problem with them is (are): Low power radio, limited qos, limited hotspot functionality... and for Dlink is no stability...

                                          I just looked back over your diagrams and I have no clue what you're trying to spell out there.

                                          From what I have loosely gathered (and I really do mean loosely), my suggestion is to bridge LAN(SIS0) to OPT1(SIS2) and plug the 1st LAN network into SIS0.  Plug the second LAN network into SIS2.  Finally plug you're wireless segment into the LAN1 or LAN2 network.

                                          Without showing us all the devices in use (switches and other interconnecting devices) and where everything is plugged in (and that doesn't mean draw a line to a box that says WAN).    For example, is the WAN box in your drawing supposed to be pfSense?

                                          We really want to help you but we are not getting the entire picture since you are in such a rush to bang out responses very rapidly using nouns to describe items that you should be describing by names, etc.

                                          Please take a moment and spell out the entire picture so we can help you.  Otherwise we are over here pissing in the dark trying to understand you're setup fully and not guessing what current device is, old device, new device, my next year device and finally the device i plan on selling yesterday.  Make sense?
