Hi.
The road to the solution isn't any different today.
Is there something we missed, like how you set it up ? How can we see what you did, or didn't ?
You looked at other messages here on this forum?Saying "it doesn't work" will never bring you close to a working solution.
So: please: details.

Are you sure the client pc is connected through LAN interface?
Did you somehow enable captive portal on WAN interface? -
You installed the Squid beep?

I have the same problem with this. I'm currently using pfsense 2.2.4, during my first few weeks, captive portal was working perfectly and smooth. after a few days, I could still connect to network resource without logging in through captive portal, I also set a idle timeout to 60 minutes on LAN interface only.
Captive portal on LAN only.
Installed and active packages:
darkstat
iftop
lightsquid
mailreport
nmap
notes
routed
squid
squidguard -
See this message : https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=98324.msg548173#msg548173 - and just ask your : why did he asked if 'squid' is installed ?!
Re-install your pfSEnse - install ONLY ONE package at the time.
Do thorough testing …
Find out yourself when things break.
Now you know what package you should NOT install, because it break the captive portal ;DI'll give you a hint : https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=98324.msg548173#msg548173
