Is it possible?

Amethz

You're better off just sticking to supported hardware.

thank you sir..
quick question, can I watch cached videos using wifi on pfsense without buffering it or this is applicable only on wired?

Derelict

That's more up to your Wi-Fi than pfSense. pfSense doesn't care if you're wired or wireless.

Amethz

could someone teach me how to layout properly my network?

I'm doing this: ISP(internet) > (built-in lan) > old pc(with pfsense) > (external lan) > wifi-router(with dd-wrt) > laptop

I set my built-in lan as wan interface and external lan as lan interface

pfsense has blank lan when I start it up… please help me so that I'll be able to browse its gui and to enable the captive portal

Strange question.
"Videos"that only work when the connection si wired ?
So when there is Wifi (radio) or Optical (fibre) in the path, there are problems ?
Never heard about that one.

Better stick to 'normal' devices and setup ;D

Perhaps they need the mighty Denon cable? :D ;D :D

Amethz

it is possible that I'll be the one who will assign voucher codes for pfsense?

Derelict

What?

Amethz

I'm the one who will generate the voucher codes not the pfsense

Derelict

Not that I know of. There's crypto involved that has to match up. Why not let pfSense do it? You can generate hundreds if not thousands at a time. Take them, put them in a database, print cards, whatever, and hand them out by whatever means works for you.

Amethz

Our adviser suggested that, so I asked if it's possible… thanks anyway :)

Amethz

I'm planning to install the squid 3, is there any conflict between that and captive portal?.. what other package/s I should install to make my pfsense more useful? TIA

Gertjan

"Squid 3": don't know.
"squid" was (is ?) breaking the portal - see the many (even more) subjects on this forum.
YMMF.

Amethz

another question, I set the dhcp range on lan to 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.10
why is that some IPs connected to my lan is 192.168.1.100 and up?

Gertjan

Another DHCP server (on LAN) ?
Static IP setting used by clients ?

You saw the pfSense DHCP server logs ?

Amethz

could I specify what's the error on voucher code?..

1st: this voucher is being used by other device
2nd: invalid voucher code (when they enter a wrong code)
3rd: expired voucher (when there's no remaining time left)

Gertjan

@Amethz:

1st: this voucher is being used by other device

See GUI -> Captive portal -> Vouchers
" If the voucher is used again from another computer, the previous session is stopped. "
If some one passes his voucher code to some one else, he will loose the usage of it.
So, don't worry, no one will 'loose' his voucher code.
@Amethz:

2nd: invalid voucher code (when they enter a wrong code)

See GUI -> Captive portal -> Vouchers
@Amethz:

3rd: expired voucher (when there's no remaining time left)

See GUI -> Captive portal -> Vouchers

Amethz

load balancing is for multiple wan only?

Gertjan

@Amethz:

1 voucher many users :'(

Or: one user (one person) but more then one device (SmartPhone, Pad, PC, whatever)

it should be 1 voucher per 1 device only, do I need to reinstall my pfsense?
