      Why are you posting a NAT port forward?  You want an entry in outbound NAT.

      That rule is in Outbound, check the attached.

        Then it should be working.  Are you sure the tunnel is up and can pass traffic?

        ETA: And please delete or disable that OPT1 port forward rule.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          How can i verify that the tunnel is up and passing traffic?  In  Status –> OpenVPN i get this:

          Name ▾ Status Connected Since                         Virtual Addr        Remote Host  Bytes Sent Bytes Rcvd
          PIA OpenVPN UDP up Sat Nov 22 12:29:20 2014 10.135.1.6 198.23.103.66 1150724 655697

          I don't see a port forward rule for anything, which rule are you referencing to?  I only posted two rules:

          Firewall Rules and NAT Outbound.

            Sure looks like it's up.  It should be working.  When you try to go to a site using host 192.168.1.62 what happens?  If you are trying to connect to something using host 192.168.1.62 and you look at diagnostics->States and filter on 192.168.1.62 what do you see?

            If you use diagnostics->ping to host 8.8.8.8 IPv4 Source Address: OPT1 what happens?

            I don't see a port forward rule for anything, which rule are you referencing to?  I only posted two rules:

            Yeah.  Sorry.  I was confused.  Nevermind.

              Yeah.  Sorry.  I was confused.  Nevermind.

              My 192.168.1.62 machine still just goes straight to the internet through the WAN IP, thats what i see from that box.  It's a standalone linux box, so I can't really hit a website, but when i do the following here is the output:

              lastb0isct@miniserver:~$ curl http://ipecho.net/plain; echo
104.172.13.57

              The OpenVPN IP is displayed on the main page and that is not the IP listed there.
              Here's what i see in the Show States area:

              tcp	109.201.152.249:1080 <- 192.168.1.62:40313	ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED	
tcp	192.168.1.62:40313 -> 104.172.13.57:48640 -> 109.201.152.249:1080	ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED	
tcp	127.0.0.1:3128 <- 146.255.36.1:80 <- 192.168.1.62:44660	FIN_WAIT_2:FIN_WAIT_2

              When doing the ping from diagnostics page:

              PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) from 10.135.1.6: 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=0 ttl=47 time=50.542 ms
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=47 time=41.516 ms
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=2 ttl=47 time=41.277 ms

--- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 41.277/44.445/50.542/4.312 ms

              It makes it through.  I do notice that the Pin gis coming from 10.135.1.6, but in the Gateways page the IP of the OPT1 device is 10.135.1.5:

              OPT1_VPNV4	OPT1	10.135.1.5	10.135.1.5	Interface OPT1_VPNV4 Gateway

              I think that might be normal behavior, just wanted to point it out.

                Yeah.  ping reports from as the source address, which is your end of the tunnel. 10.135.1.6 is expected.

                See that FW Rules.png screenshot in https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=84189.msg463104#msg463104

                how about a full screenshot.  I know it sucks but this should be working and there must be another rule catching the traffic before the VPN rule.

                        You should do basic layer 2/3 troubleshooting and find out where the fault is.

                          I don't have any layer 2/3 switches, only dumb switches and everything connected to this pfsense box.  Do i need Layer2 switches to take advantage of the OpenVPN plugin?

                          Also, i checked states and noticed that everything DOES seem to be going through the OpenVPN IP from that perspective, but the box itself is getting back the WAN IP when i do the curl command to ipecho.net.

                          Here are the states:

                          I thought all traffic was supposed to go out via UDP, looks like its mostly using TCP for this stuff….

                            No.  You need to do simple ethernet/IP troubleshooting to find out what's broken and where.

                              Updated my previous post…looks like traffic is going through the OPT1 interface via the states page.  Just not sure why it's not routing everything directly to the VPN IP...

                                Hmm.  Turn off gateway monitoring on OPT1.  I don't have to do that on my test system, but yours is still routing out the regular internet.

                                While we're at it, run this:

                                Diagnostics->Command Prompt

                                Execute Shell Command: pfctl -nf /tmp/rules.debug

                                Does that result in any output?  A clean run will look like the attached screenshot.

                                  Hmm.  Turn off gateway monitoring on OPT1.  I don't have to do that on my test system, but yours is still routing out the regular internet.

                                  While we're at it, run this:

                                  Diagnostics->Command Prompt

                                  Execute Shell Command: pfctl -nf /tmp/rules.debug

                                  Does that result in any output?  A clean run will look like the attached screenshot.

                                  Yep, the pfctl command is displayed exactly as you show in the screenshot.

                                  It doesn't look like the OPT1 is going through the gateway, judging by the firewall logs:

                                  Shouldn't i be seeing all pass this traffic going to the IP of the OpenVPN IP?

                                  Are those dhcp-option and redirect-gateway options going to cause issues?

                                  I just had a "breakthrough", the OPT1 OpenVPN IP was being redirected to 192.168.1.62 for a few seconds! The above OpenVPN logs are from the few seconds that it worked.  What other logs can i gather to verify what happened during those few seconds?!

                                  Also, proof from the machine:

                                  curl http://ipecho.net/plain; echo
50.97.232.157

                                    On the dashboard i'm also seeing activity going to the OPT1 Interface…

                                        What are all those block rules for?  What else have you done?

                                        I'm about ready to ask you to punt, revert to defaults, and bring one system/site up at a time.  This stuff pretty much just works unless you do something to break it.

                                        You know what you've done to your router.  Nobody else does.

                                          Where would i go to delete those rules?  I never added anything other than the OpenVPN guide and a couple packages, otherwise this install is brand new.

                                            What packages?  I don't know where you would go to delete those or what they are.  Anyone?

                                            Basic troubleshooting will tell you where the problem is.  Not sure what else to tell you.
