IPsec between 2 offices- Devices connected via WAP can't be pinged from remote location.
I have 2 offices that each have a pFsense box. IPsec is configured to create the tunnel between the two offices. One of the offices has a WAP on the network for wireless devices to connect. Devices that connect wirelessly through the access point cannot be pinged/seen on the network from the REMOTE location. Locally, all wireless devices can be seen on the network from any computer. If I'm on a computer in the remote location, I can ping all devices on the network EXCEPT the wireless devices. This WAS working just fine. All devices use to be able to connect to each other from either location. I have not made any network changes. Although I have installed a couple packages on both sides and i can't see how this would have created this issue. I apologize in advance if I'm not being clear. Thanks for your help. Here is the info for each office:
**Local Office with WAP
-pfsense 1.2.2
Open-VM-Tools Services
bandwidthd
darkstat

squid recently installed
squidGuard recently installed
**Remote office
-pfsense 1.2.2

Additional observation:
Even though wireless devices can't be seen remotely(thru tunnel), devices that are connected via cat5 directly into the WAP can be seen just fine from remote office(thru tunnel).
Here's a diagram of the local office networking devices:Circuit
