      @sujyo1:

      I do not want to use DHCP server on OPT1 just want to pass wifi traffic from ap through opt1 with only captive portal. Should I use static ip on opt interface setup? Should I have to do anything into NAT/Rules…etc to pass the wifi traffic?

      And how should these AP-Portal-Wifi visitors obtain an IP ?
      The portal can't work without a ststic IP, and its own DHCP server.

      Btw : your wan is 10.10.10/24 - change your OPT1 interface to 192.168.1.0/24

      No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
      Edit : and where are the logs ??

          From main router

          Thanks. I was not aware of this!!

          I donot want to do double net.  Got it I have to do double net. or remove existing router and use pf as main router, set Opt to 10.10.10.0/24  and all ap to this subnet then turn on captive portal…

              Why not just renumber the OPT1 network?

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

                    Check:
                    Your LAN interface : 192.168.1.0/24 - ok, that the one by default. The LAN interface can have a DHCP server instance, or not.
                    So, make interface OPT1 (the portal interface) : 192.168.2.0/24 - active  a DHCP instance on it - and a DNS resolver. The activate the portal interface - chose a login method - add firewall rules to the OPT1 interface.

                    You can keep the WAN like 10.10.10.0/24

                      If I set opt1 ip to 192.168.2.0/24 and enable opt1 dhcp then, in this case I have to change all ap's static ips form 10.10.10.0/24 to 192.168.2.0/24 subnet.

                        Administering a network sometimes involves a little work.
