      Hi all,

      I'm following this tutorial to forward VNC Port 5900.
      http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/How_can_I_forward_ports_with_pfSense%3F

      But i still failed after trying many time.

      I use my router (DLINK 2640B) to connect to pfsense. Just asking, did i need to forward port at my router also?

        yes, you need to forward your ports on the dlink, OR put the host in question on the DMZ (on the dlink)

        why would you use a dlink router and pfsense in the first place ?

          because my router is also my modem..

          And if i forward at my router, where Ip address need i go?

          To my backup server (192.168.1.55) , my pfsense wan(192.168.2.2) or my pfsense Lan (192.168.1.1)

            You need to forward it to the pfSense WAN IP.
