          If it works with SERVER Net and not specific addresses I would posit you are using the wrong addresses.

          You might want to post the actual port forwards and firewall rules. Should only be necessary to post the GUEST rules.

          Configure it to something you think should work but doesn't and post that.

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

              Does Diagnostics > Tables look sane when you examine the exchange table?

              Is the DNS answer the public WAN address or the inside address?

              What does the port forward on WAN look like?

                  Well, yeah. There's your problem.

                  What DNS servers do you want pfSense itself to use to resolve names?

                  Do any clients rely on pfSense for DNS server functionality?

                      If you do not need any DNS services on pfSense:

                      Set the DNS servers you want pfSense itself to use in System > General

                      Make sure DNS server override is unchecked

                      Check Disable DNS Forwarder (removes 127.0.0.1 from the list of nameservers)

                      Disable both DNS Forwarder and DNS Resolver in Services.
