      Hi,

      I am trying to install and setup pfsense 2.0.1

      Do you want to setup your vlans now y/n? y

      vlan capable interfaces

      em0
      em1
      sk0

      enter the parent name of the vlan (or nothing if finished)? em0
      enter the vlan tag (1-4094):
      Invalid vlan tag ' '

      Rinse lather repeat.

      Since I can't even get autodetect to work right it won't let me go any further.

      I could use some help with this one.

        You have to enter a vlan tag there.

        If you don't need VLANs (and if you don't know… you don't.) then answer "n" to the question about setting up vlans, then it will move on to the actual interface assignment, which is what it appears you need.

          It would not auto detect the wlan. So I gave it the em0 interface, since that connects to the DSL modem. It appears to have moved on to the next step. So thank you very much for your help.

          :)
