        That's probably not your issue. What do your logs say when trying to fetch an address?

              @netblues Yes it works directly from modem to laptop. yes dhcp. here's my setup: MODEM------>PFSENSE WAN (no wan ip received), PFSENSE LAN------>LAPTOP

              I'm using Mini PC X30G-N2810 as pfsense with 2 embeded realtek lan port!![0_1545369087154_HTB1aw4jXorrK1RkSne1q6ArVVXaD.jpg](Uploading 100%)

                Did you uncheck the Block private networks and loopback addresses in the Interfaces / WAN tab?

                  So no issue with mac address and need to spoof it too. Do a packet capture on your wan and see what is going on

                        What do you mean "no logs"??? Status - System Logs - DHCP. All DHCP client messages are logged there. You're saying there is nothing at all?

                        Also, what do you mean by "I can't capture packets"??? Diagnostics - Packet Capture. The tools are there. Use them.
