      so i have a problem with setting up this:

      1 pfsense - main from wan (192.168.1.1)
        first router wrt160nl (ddwrt) connected to pfsense (192.168.0.1)
        second router dir-300 (ddwrt) connected to wrt160nl (192.168.2.1)

      when i'am connected to wrt160nl i'am able to login to 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.0.1 but not to 192.168.2.1

      to be funny i think that when i'am connected to dir300 by wifi and lan internet works, and by lan directly to laptop i'am able to log on to 192.168.2.1

      is there something i need to setup in firewall options?
      when i switch them by sides dir-300 is ok but wrt160nl is not working so maybe there is something in pfsense that needs to be set?

            Configure both Routers on the same network.

              What do you mean by it?

              They are in the same subnet and in that second one gateway is set to previous

                Internet –- pfsense ---- wrt160nl --- dir-300

                Is this your setup?

                try to configure this way:

                internet---- pfsense (192.168.0.254) ----- wrt160n(192.168.0.1)
                                      |-------------------------dri-300 (192.168.0.2)

                On wrt160n, connect dir-300 and pfsense on lan ports.
                If you have more devices to connect, assign wan port to lan o ddwrt.

                Also select only one device to be the dhcp server for 192.168.0.0/24 network.

                att,
