      I had problems too with standard ports. After reading and trying lots of configurations finally i got it work with
      one TCP rule to Firewall:
      Port 80 does not work to me !?

              try this:

              1. disable portforward for your pfsense webmin
              2. create a rule on wan:
              
              Action: Pass
              Disabled: unchecked
              Interface: WAN
              Protocol: TCP
              Source: any (or if you want to determine allowed ip's then you could put it here)
              Source port: any
              Destination: your public ip ( or use aliases )
              Destination port: what is your https/http port
              Description: firewall management
              
              

              I use aliases: Firewall_mgmt_ips & Firewall_mgmt_ports

              it just works

                Wow, I've never gotten the webgui to work from the wan side for AGES! I had a port forward rule as well as an access rule. The odd things is
                it works the other way with Monowall, which is what I used to use before moving to pFsense.

                    I finaly solved the problem. It wasnt problem with setup on pfsense. The problem was with ADSL line. Internet provider made some changes on their side and now everthing works fine . The problem have been with some https traffic.

                      No, this for some reason has never worked for me. Hasn't worked on a Dell server, laptop and Soekris box. It starts to open the the Webgui very slowly then it crashes.
                      For whatever reason I never have an issue with Monowall. I assume you configure remote access the same way on both platforms.

                        Piplfox-  13.10.1.0/8 is a routable public address and shouldn't be used on LAN unless your the user of that subnet…  It has the possibility of causing you problems.

                        Heres a screenshot of the rule on my test box...  I use a nonstandard port on my production boxes...

                        as pointed out already...  You should have no port forwarding turned on for this rule.
