      If his pfSense is in a private network, but his WAN is a public address, there is obviously a router in front of it.
      I didn't realize that's a test environment with private networks.

      Sorry maybe i wasn't enought accurate,
      I just want to create a vpn access to my network and i want to give access from the outside. (i pretty new in network configuration, i'm learning)
      I just want to test and configure a vpn so i just link my computer

      When i plug my computer to my box it works i can go to my network now.
      But i just try to share my cell phone to my computer and it doesn't works.

        Confused to what this box is? Its some router - where is its internet connection?

        If your on the internet you can not connect to some rfc1918 address. You would have to connect to a public IP, which you could forward into pfsense sure.

              If your on the internet how do you think you can connect to some rfc1918 address 192.168.x.x ??

              When you create your export you need to put in your PUBLIC IP.. ie your ISP public IP, and the port your using for openvpn would have to be forwarded to pfsense IP.

                  BTW "box" is not a good term for your router ;)

                  Normally box wold refer to a end device, computer, iot, dvr, etc. Not a router doing nat ;)... Maybe if you would of called it your ISP box ;)

                      in france we call the router that give us internet : box.

                      I'm using the same "box" (Livebox pro from Orange) as my up-stream "ISP router".
                      I set it's LAN IP to 192.168.10.1/24, handing over to pfSense an rfc1918 address like 192.168.**10.**9
                      192.168.10.9 is my pfSense WAN IP - this means that "Block private networks and loopback addresses" shouldn't be checked on the pfSense WAN interface settings page.
                      This is a typical router-after-router setup, quiet commn these days.

                      To make the VPN work : you have to add a NAT rule in your "ISP BOX/router" the VPN port, probably 1194 to the connected device called "pfSense", like :

                      Your real WAN IP is https://whatismyipaddress.com/fr/mon-ip

                      Edit : and where are the logs ??

                        hello Gertjan,

                        Thank you for the reply.

                        I just add a nat rule to my free box but nothing change.
                        And if i understand i can connect to my local network because i don't use the good ip ?
                        in my configuration i've got : 192.168.0.50 1194 udp should i modify it and add my private ip ?

                        Here you can find the client configuration :
                        dev tun
                        persist-tun
                        persist-key
                        cipher AES-256-CBC
                        ncp-ciphers AES-256-GCM:AES-128-GCM
                        auth SHA1
                        tls-client
                        client
                        resolv-retry infinite
                        remote 192.168.0.50 1194 udp
                        auth-user-pass
                        ca pfSense-UDP4-1194-ca.crt
                        tls-auth pfSense-UDP4-1194-tls.key 1
                        remote-cert-tls server

                        and my free nat

                          That is a private IP and you can not talk to it from the internet.. What is your public IP?? Search whats my IP in google for gosh sake..

                            Is this apart of the config of a client, that lives some where on the net ?
                            In that case, it should be your WAN IP : this one : https://whatismyipaddress.com/fr/mon-ip

                            Your FreeBox seems well NATted to me.
                            This rule is needed of course, because by default, every incoming connection from "the world" will be blocked by default by any ISP-router (firewall) (your FreeBox).

                            Now, incoming connections from anywhere (== the world or WAN) on port 1194, protocol UDP, will be directed to the IP used by pfSense, port 1194. If on pfSense the VPN is running, and you used the pfSense VPN Wizard, a rule on the WAN interface of pfSense has been created that looks like this :

                            0_1531127405056_1575e49f-59df-4377-a98a-778c5ad35197-image.png

                              I put my public ip and all work fine now.

                              Thank a lot all for your help.

                              Have a great day (i't my bithday today :p = 30yo)
