      Hi all,

      Currently I have pfsense 2.0 install on a Dell R310. The first port, bce0, is our WAN with an IP address of xx.xxx.40.51/28. The gateway is xx.xxx.40.49. The 2nd port, bce1, is our VLAN10 with an ip address of 10.0.10.1/24 and the gateway for this VLAN is 10.0.10.254. My question is how do I connect to the internet from my VLAN10 using 10.0.10.1 as a gateway? I was able to ping my computer on this VLAN (10.0.10.101) and the outside (using google DNS 8.8.8.8) from pfSense using interface VLAN10 but I couldn't connect to the internet from my computer.

      I appreciate your help,

      -KN

        I don't understand what you mean by VLAN gateway.

        If you assign LAN to VLAN10 (NOT bce1), and LAN IP is 10.0.10.1, then you set default gatway 10.0.10.1

        I'm not sure where 10.0.10.254 comes from. From your PC what does ping 10.0.10.254 show? ping 10.0.10.1? arp -a?
