      changed subnet on wifi to 192.168.6.1 amd set dhcp 192.168.6.50 - 75
      net book connects and get ip can't ping any other interface and can't get web
      can ping interface ip of 192.168.6.1 but thats it. so dchp is working but nothing else
      same rules apply

      wifi

      • WIFI net * * * * none   allow clients on AP to access clietns on lan and wan 
        ICMP * * WIFI net * * none   allow ping firewall pfsense_AP

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

          Can you do tracert from wifi clients to see where it's halting?

          One place worth to look at is Firewall:NAT and edit there manual outbound nat in use. You should see there automatic rule for lan net, you can add all others there too.

            ok found the problem had the gateway for the wifi set wrong fixed and working
            got 4 interfaces working out of 5 got some quirks to iron out but i think i got this figured out (as usual making it more complicated than needed)
            got another problem trying to get my other opt(subnet172) to go to wan and not any other interface
            rule for subnet172

            • SUBNET172 net * WAN address * * none   allow 172 to www

            should i change wan address wan subnet or?
            trying to prevent subnet172 access to other interfaces except wan
            once again thanks getting closer to my goal  ;D ;D

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

              Easier way: create alias localnets. add every single localnet on that

              then create two rules:

              1. block any wifi localnets
              2. pass any wifi *

              that should do it

                that should do it

                i have 5 interfaces
                wan
                lan
                opt1subnet172
                opt2kidsSubnet
                opt3wifi

                dont understand what you mean
                i want to block another opt(subnet172) not wifi to all interfaces but wan
                so if i read what you are showing create a alias and add all subnets include subnet172 and change wifi to subnet172 and this should work

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

                  think i got this do i put the rules under opt(subnet172) or under wan
                  i think this should go under subnet172
                  just making sure thanks!!!

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

                    Yes but it only to that interface subnet172

                    In pfsense rules are working on ingress. That means, if you add rule to LAN, it doesn't affect to subnet172
