      So you can ping your gateway? It answers pings that 78.186.95.1 address

      If so then contact your ISP on why you can not route past it.. If pfsense can ping that gateway but not 8.8.8.8 then its your ISP problem.

      If it can not ping the gateway - again isp problem...

      If pfsense does not show the gateway up its not going to route anything anywhere.

          Your not setting a static IP your signing in with PPPoE and that address is assigned..

          If the gateway does not answer ping - then set the gateway to be always UP and see if you can ping past your gateway, ie 8.8.8.8 for example.

                If you can ping yoru gateway then pfsense would auto set the gateway up..

                Add your gateway widget to your dashboard..

                example here is mine..

                    if pfsense shows gateway up, and pfsense can not ping 8.8.8.8 then your clients would not be able to ping 8.8.8.8 either.. You need to contact the ISP.

                            You post a question on a public forum you are asking everyone ;) heheh

                            He has just as much right to post his opinion of the topic or thread as you do to ask a question or start a thread in the first place.

                                And your showing your complete utter lack of any netiquette as Babiz mentioned by not posting details of this fix...

                                    It just keeps getting better with each post.

                                    @johnpoz said in With static IP address, pfsense clients cannot access the Internet.:

                                    I am this close to just banning you and purging your nonsense from the board.

                                    ๐Ÿ™‚ Why not?
