Hi there.
Things are missing in your question.
Did you add a user to the User manager ?
The portal service is activated and setup (you selected the right interface for the portal, right setup ?) ?Are you using https sites when surfing through the portal without being authenticated first (try http://www.google.com NOT https://www.goolge.com) ?
When you 'browse' without being authenticated, do you actually surf on the net - or not ?is this a bug?.

And … actually, it had a nasty bug in the portal code that had to be patched ..... You did that ?
Anyway. Please, upgrade.edit: lol http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,63157.0.html the solution was already there a while ago.
This is important:
@wallabybob:Which build of pfSense are you using?

Where are you browsing to? There are known issues in Captive portal with browsing to https pages.
What does it do?

Maybe you are using external DNS, which you should add to "Allowed IP addresses" in Captive settings?
Try browsing any IP address instead of hostname - 1.1.1.1 for example.
