2 WANs and 2 LANs

Gradius

Well, I still cannot ping/access my WiFi router.

My setup:

TL-WR1043ND: 192.168.2.253/252 (gateway 192.168.2.254) and LAN: 192.168.2.100~192.168.2.105

I have 2 xDSL + 4 NICs on pfSense, setup is:

WAN1: 192.168.10.254/24 (xDSL1: 192.168.10.1)
WAN2: 192.168.20.254/24 (xDSL2: 192.168.20.1)

LAN1: 192.168.0.254/24 (connected to my wired switcher on network1)
LAN2: 192.168.2.254/24 (connected to WiFi as 192.168.2.253/30)

From my computer (192.168.0.1) I can ping everything, except WiFi (192.168.2.253) and WiFi's network (192.168.2.100~192.168.2.105).

I use Load Balancing and works well, but I just cannot ping anything from my wired network1 to wireless network2, and vice-versa.

My firewall rules are very simple:

From WiFi, I can also ping/access everything except my wired network (LAN1).

Help!

Adding this:
Action: PASS
proto: any
src: LAN1 subnet
dest: LAN2 subnet

I can ping 192.168.2.253 (my WiFi), but not 192.168.2.100~192.168.2.105 (WiFi network).

There is something pretty odd, I can access my HP printer (192.168.0.240) from WiFi w/o problem, but not my Win7 computers. ???

Edit: I can now ping my .0.1 from WiFi (culpit was Norton Firewall), but I still cannot ping my notebook (on WiFi) from my local, the inverse is possible.

I turned off the firewalls and still no go.

i'm guessing the client-computers are the ones blocking the pings … it's unlikely some ip's are pingable and others are not while the entire subnet should be allowed according to your firewall rules

Well, I did turn off every firewall on computers (not on pfsense), and still no go (cannot ping).

It must be TL-WR1043ND since it creates his own internal IP (is a WiFi router). :(

Try to turn it like accesspoint

turn off DHCP in your wifi router and dont use the wan port. connect the cable from your pfsense box to a lan port and try.:)

@vildsvin123:

But if I do that, then I will don't have WiFi at all. Besides, I cannot access my WiFi at all, I'm forced to use WAN or nothing (on WiFi) works.

If I turn off DHCP and try to use the same network it gives me:
Error code: 5008
WAN IP address and LAN IP address cannot be in a same subnet. Please input another IP address.

I wish how. Looks like the official FW is very limited.

The only option I see is:
Enable WDS Bridging - You can select this to enable WDS Bridging, with this function, the Router can bridge two or more Wlans. NOTE: If this checkbox is selected, you had better make sure the following settings are correct.

Set management ip and subnet, make sure that this ip is usable and in same network than your firewall
Set your wireless settings
Turn dhcp off from that wireless router
connect only power cable and lan cable from your network switch or firewall(pfsense) and connect that cable only to lan side no wan at all
Enjoy
