      Hello everyone!

      I have a semi confusing setup (at least for me).  It's not straight forward because Im on a crappy Chinese connection and have to use a strongVPN gateway for a few of the NIC's (explained below)

      I run a home network that looks like the following:

      My home network looks like the following:

      A pfsense box (AMD 64 2.4ghz( built around 5 nics, each separating an area in my home

      • 1 WAN Nic (PPPoE setup)
      • 1 LAN Nic (my office computer)
      • 1 Wifi Nic, dedicated to a wireless router - DD-WRT
      • 1 Media - goes to my tv an entertainment system and uses an openVPN setup.  (uses a different gateway, a VPN gateway, vs the other NICS)
      • 1 VOIP - use a voip phone/adapter for business.  DMZ'd basically.

      The problem Im having is that I would like to share my computer - LAN nic - (10.10.10.19, subnet 255.255.255.0) with my entertainment center - Media Nic (10.10.1.50, 255.255.255.0, which is connected to my AppleTV, Wii, Xbox 360 (all of which are on a vpn connection so I can skirt the geoip stuff, thus enabling hulu, netflix, proper game dloads, etc).

      I was able to ping through earlier, but now I cannot.  I feel like I might need a VLAN setup or some really specific NAT rules, but Im not sure at all :)

      Currently I have the following setup, but I can't figure out how to get my XBMC (media server) to show my shared files on my computer - with a wifi or wired connection (Wifi NIC or LAN NIC)

      Any ideas?

      Brian

        Install/Enable the IGMP proxy.
        Set the upstream to the interface on which your server resides.
        However as long as all your devices are connected directly to the pfSense it doesn't really matter which interface is configured as upstream, since all servers on downstream interfaces are propagated as well.

        We do what we must, because we can.
