PfSense internet does not work ( Need desperate help!! )

johnpoz

Well sure looks like ethernet is working to me if your connected to the gui..

So you set static on your PC.. If you meant no internet on your pc, yeah you didn't set any dns.. So how would you expect your pc to lookup anything?

err… sorry... I dont understand that!
Would you like to explain that a liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitle bit more?
but I said already in the first post that I ask a lot of questions

Oh do I need to set the DNS to the pfSense box? maybe? …

johnpoz

you said ethernet, ethernet is not the internet.. That is your local network connection, etc.. which is clearly working if you can access the pfsense webgui via IP address.

Normally yes pfsense would dns for your network, but it can be anything you want. But if your going to setup a static IP and you want that box to resolve say www.google.com then yeah needs dns.. your picture was NOTHING.. So no shit kind of hard to resolve www.google.com or www.pfsense.com or www.cnn.com, etc. etc..

Sorry about the ethernet/internet problem, I am dutch already I said…(my english is not very good)
So... I can just put anything in the DNS box?

johnpoz

you can put in anything you want that is a valid nameserver that will resolve what you want.. Putting in say 8.8.8.8 (googledns) isn't going to resolve any local stuff that pfsense would know about, etc.

So …? Do I need to put in the dns box 8.8.8.8 ?
also I already tried that and still not getting internet

johnpoz

So from the web gui, go to diag, dns lookup - can you look up www.google.com for example

Go to diag, ping - can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? See attached screenshots

If you can not get to the internet, how are you posting this stuff?
