Pfsense as a router. Please help!
-
Then I used DHCP mode in pfsense (LAN because i used UTP cord) to set IP Address automatically. My PFSense LAN has a IP of 192.168.254.100 provided by the DHCP. Now with these settings. I can ping websites. google, facebook, etc.
This is messy. I guess your mixing up LAN and WAN or worse.
Please, provide an image like this :
Using username "admin". Authenticating with public key "rsa-key-20150201" Passphrase for key "rsa-key-20150201": pfSense - Netgate Device ID: 20bb46fd95384c37e087 *** Welcome to pfSense 2.4.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) on pfsense *** WAN (wan) -> rl0 -> v4/DHCP4: 192.168.1.11/24 LAN (lan) -> fxp0 -> v4: 192.168.1.1/24 v6: 2001:470:xxxx:5c0:2::1/64 PORTAL (opt1) -> sis0 -> v4: 192.168.2.1/24 ...... 0) Logout (SSH only) 9) pfTop 1) Assign Interfaces 10) Filter Logs 2) Set interface(s) IP address 11) Restart webConfigurator 3) Reset webConfigurator password 12) PHP shell + pfSense tools 4) Reset to factory defaults 13) Update from console 5) Reboot system 14) Disable Secure Shell (sshd) 6) Halt system 15) Restore recent configuration 7) Ping host 16) Restart PHP-FPM 8) Shell Enter an option:As you can see, I use the default IP on LAN : 192.168.1.1/24 because I'm NOT an expert, so I have no reason at all to change default LAN settings.
My 'modem', hooked up on the WAN interface is a "ADSL modem and router", so I gave (changed !) it's LAN base IP to 192.168.10.1 - the DHCP server in my modem/router is activated, and gave and this to IP to the pfSense WAN interface : 192.168.10.11
Of course, the DHCP server running on pfSense hands out IP addresses to my devices on LAN (and the other 'LAN' network "OPT"), using the default pool (192.168.1.2 -> 192.168.1.254).

Here is my image sir. Omg. :(

You have your WAN interface set as wlan0.. (wireless interface) Not a wired interface.. And it has no IP… So no that is not going to work.
-
Can you please post a picture showing the pfSense version installer as well. In the photos you always cut that out nicely.
Except for all the other problems I'm still not convinced you're using pfSense (never answered my question) instead of the fork.Until you proof using pfSense indeed I'd be rather sceptical about further troubleshooting help.

How do I setup WAN then? I don't know any GUI of this firewall to connect it through wifi (WAN) ? Please help T_T
Hello sir. according to my groupmate. ours was called opnsense. the fork. we posted here because we knew this forum have many friendly users and also the setup is the same. hope you don't kick us T_T thank you.

"Hello sir. according to my groupmate. ours was called opnsense."
That is some big brassy shiny balls you have there dude… Good luck!
-
we knew we're wrong to ask here. but we didn't expect to be called that way :( we're just asking for help. we're just students with no idea and we just want to learn :(. thank you for the good luck btw. and we hope you can still help us. thank you

They have a forum too. You should probably start there.
If there are bugs, etc, you are encountering we won't be familiar with them.

"but we didn't expect to be called that way"
huh? Just commented on how big your balls must be to ask for help on the distro your chosen distro stole from ;)
Somewhat like banking with Wells Fargo and then going to Chase bank and asking them to help you balance your check book - only bigger balls than that ;) Since Fargo didn't steal the idea of checking from Chase.. Nor the software to run the checking accounts in the first place.
If you decide to install pfsense instead be more than happy to help you out. As I already stated your wan interface is listed as your wifi card… Change it to your 2nd wired nic, or use vlans and should be fine if you only have 1 wired nic. Your drawing shows 2 connections looks like to me.

Locking. OP if you have a question about pfSense software, please start a new thread.
