      @johnpoz:

      Where is the info from your ISP that that 62.116.200.128/27 is routed to your 62.116.223.134 address?

      As you can see from the trace - no it does not route to your wan IP…  From what it looks like to me is that network should directly be connected to that last hop.. !H normally means the host is not reachable.

      My ISP gave the info, and using it on that way is also working very well - as long as I don't have pfsense in middle.
      I can ex. give my host all static ip on 62.116.200.128/27 network with gateway 62.116.223.133 or .134 (with pfsense). They all works great.

        Again there is a HUGE difference between an ISP giving you a netblock to use - and routing that netblock to you.

        As to your hosts working from behind pfsense..  Outbound - ok, if you give a host an IP on 62.116.200.128/27 and then set his gateway to 62.116.223.133 – that is not really a valid configuration.  Your gateway needs to be on your actual network!!

        Thought you said you turned off NAT?  Not from the creds you sent me, I just logged in an your nat is still there..

        These details your ISP gave you about that /27 -- did they give you a gateway for that network?

          Sorry, i did delete the outbound rules, but tried to set it on (another interface). no difference.

          Now deleted again.

          PM on the way….

            If that network is suppose to be routed to you - then you would turn off nat.  If that netblock is just addresses you can use on your wan interface.  Then you would create them as VIPs and nat to the local addresses behind pfsense to access them from the pubic.

            If they were giving you that /27 to use on the wan, you should have a gateway address in that /27 which is there device.  If they are going to route it to you.  Then that should show up in the traceroute - which it does not.

            So I would suggest you contact your ISP for details of what you can or can not do with that /27..  But in a normal setup you would not setup a gateway address on a different network segment like you suggested with this.

            "I can ex. give my host all static ip on 62.116.200.128/27 network with gateway 62.116.223.133"

            That is not a standard sort of setup, and many OSes will not even allow you to do that - windows for example would tell you to get bent if you tried to do that..

                  NO!!!  That is NOT how you would do it!!

                  That is NOT a routed solution.

                    Damn….  :-\

                    Why is this not a "proper" solution?  :)

                      Because its NOT Routed like you stated from your isp..  Tell them to FIX their problem!

                      You stated in PM, that ISP gave you this info

                      "IP adresser: 62.116.200.128/27 will be routed to 62.116.223.134"

                      That is NOT what is happening, as I stated before - from a trace it looks like that router thinks your IP range should be directly connected.  Which is not a route to your 223.134 address.

                      You do understand a bridge from public INTERNET to your LAN is going to just be Filled with NOISE!!

                        SO TRUE!!!

                        My ISP have looked into it, there was some routings issues… now fixed!

                        Bridge mode is OFF now - Seems like it is working correctly now. Traffic is being routed correctly. :)

                        Thanks a lot!!!!!
