            Ok another idea, disabled CP and I still can't get out to the internet from OPT1…  I'm close, I can taste it.

              Try to reboot, maybe something broke somewhere in between the misconfigurations.

                Another question before I do though, what should the gateway be set to on OPT1, the same as the LAN one?

                Edit: getting traffic thru OPT1 after the reboot, no gateway set on OPT1 now also.

                Edit 2:  ;D yay! its working!!

                  Yes, you shouldn't have a gateway unless it's an additional WAN.

                    Sorry for warming up this old thread, but i have the same problem.
                    I'm using the latest snapshot - my setup is:

                    WAN - DHCP
                    LAN - 192.168.1.1 - DHCP Server on
                    OPT1 - 192.168.2.1 - DHCP Server and Captive Portal on

                    Traffic from LAN to WAN is no problem. But when i'm connecting on OPT1 and enter f.e. "www.google.com" in my browser, there is no redirection to the Captive Portal page. If i enter "192.168.2.1:8000" the Captive Portal page ist perfecly shown up an the auth works also. But no connection to the internet.
                    DNS Server for the clients on OPT1 is 192.168.2.1
                    I tried reinstalling pfSense but this didnt work either.

                    any ideas?

                      Please specify latest snapshot including version and builddate. We have resynced the CP just yesterday against m0n0's code. Are you already running that version?

                        1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-02-27-2007
                        built on Wed Feb 28 10:30:50 EST 2007

                        Edit: Installation was performed with the 02 25 2007 snapshot and then updatet via webinterface

                        Edit2: I tried a complete reinstall with 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-02-27-2007 built on Wed Feb 28 16:56:55 EST 2007
                        with the same result - i think i forgot something very little…but what...?

                        Here my steps

                        1. Start PC with pfSense Live CD and assign the interfaces

                        • LAN 192.168.1.1 - DHCP on
                        • WAN DHCP (in my test setup 192.168.178.35)
                          2. Install pfSense to Harddisk
                          3. Deactivate "Block local..." on WAN interface 
                          5. Activate OPT1
                        • OPT1 192.168.2.1
                          6. Activate DHCP Server on OPT1
                        • Range: 192.168.2.100-254
                          6. Activate Captive Portal on OPT1
                          7. Result = failed as discribed above

                          i miss you setting up the rules for opt1 interface to access the lan or internet
                          for the lan interface these rules are there by default
                          you can copy the default lan rule to the opt1 interface and edit it to use the opt1 interface
