Lan / Wan IPs

Which part of move it out of 192.168.x.x entirely is so horribly hard to get…

^ while I agree that would be the simple solution dok, it for sure will not teach him anything ;)
Subnets break at specific points depending on the mask, you can't just take any number and start your network at that mark.
He mentions a beach and needing a 1000 IPs - so how many AP is that? What kind? And what is in front of this pfsense.. What I don't want to happen is your network crash and burn and you blame it on pfsense. Which can handle 1000 devices without breaking a sweat if on the right hardware. What are you running pfsense on? What is your bandwidth that these 1000 users are going to share?

Finally I follow doktornotor advice, and I put 10.10.0.1 for LAN and it works !
(6 Cisco AP behind a switch)

Cisco Aironet 702i

With an even distribution of users (wishful thinking) and typical 5GHz take you're looking at 100 associations per radio on 2.4 and 66 associations on 5GHz.
I have no real-world experience with the Cisco 702s. They ought to be able to handle it. I know ruckus 7372s and 7982s have no problem with that number of associations. Hopefully you also have a controller. I think there are wireless controllers built into current Cisco switches.

normally, i have 100-200 connections per day but sometimes (1 or 2 days per month, i have an event between 500-800 persons can come this day and they want to Tag or put Selfie on facebook :(

6 AP with 1000 clients is = 166 clients each if you got an pure equal dist, good luck with that. Those are controller based, you have controller setup? Those are indoor APs - thought you said this was on a beach?
What kind of area are you talking? Those ae only 2x2 AP.. Not going to be the best for lots of clients each, etc.
There is a huge difference of 200 a DAY over 6 AP compared to 800 at the same time sharing those 6.

When i say 800 clients it is a maximum. They will not be there in the same time, because we are opening from 1pm to 8pm and maybe 300-400 it is the maximum in one hour.
this is a great beach, and people will be scattered equally because they can not stand in one place. So i think 6 cisco ap with 300-400 persons at the maximum (because they stay 2 or 3 hours maximum), i think it will be good… and it is only for 1 or 2 days per month !
they won't donwload, only go on facebook or read emails.

how do you have these indoor AP mounted at a beach? They must actually be inside structures?
