      I was installed the PFSENSE for the first time than I tried to login the GUI interface via the WAN IP but there is no connection.

      what things should I check to be uable to login via WAN ?

      the Pfsense installed on VPS machine according the official guidance.

      Many Thanks.

        If you have LAN and WAN, then everything is blocked coming from WAN. You need to access from LAN (make a VM client on LAN side) or the console. From there you can add pass rules on WAN if you need to allow access from a "private" WAN side to manage it.

        As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."
