      Change the port that the pfSense web interface uses (or simply switch it to HTTPS) and then disable NAT reflection.

        Well, thank you for your answer. I found time to try this, but it does not work.
        I check this : Disables the automatic creation of NAT redirect rules for access to your public IP addresses from within your internal networks. Note: Reflection only works on port forward type items and does not work for large ranges > 500 ports
        I move pfsense webadmin to https.

        A nslookup to xxx.dyndns.org gives my wan IP : ok.
        But xxx.dyndns.org in my browser gives a timeout.

        From a LAN client, I try this :
        curl -Iv http://xxx.dyndns.org

        • About to connect() to xxx.dyndns.org port 80 (#0)
          *  Trying xxx.xxx.109.180… Operation timed out
        • couldn't connect to host
        • Closing connection #0
          curl: (7) couldn't connect to host

        Any ideas ?

          Try re-enabling NAT reflection.

                      Hi greeeg!

                      I'm having the same problem as you, from outside I can see my website but from inside Im being redirected to the pfSense web admin.

                      Did you find a solution to that problem?

                      Thanks!

                        sorry if this is sovled
                        but have you checked it sounds like you have to servers listening on port 80
                        set one server to :8080 it should work
                        i found that which ever server is in the nat list first becomes default if there is a conflict
                        just a suggestion from trial and errror

                        don't fix it, if ain't broken !!!
