      Hello everyone!!!
      This is my first post and I am a newbe in pfsense but also in ubuntu. So here it goes!!!
      My setup is as follows

      Ubuntu is the host machine with
      eth0
      eth1 192.168.1.2
      wlan0 192.168.2.2

      I run pfsense(guest) in virtualbox
      em0 (Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop) bridged to eth0(WAN) pppoe
      em1 (Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop) bridged to eth1(LAN) 192.168.1.1
      opt1 (Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop) bridged to wlan0 192.168.2.1

      I installed hostapd in ubuntu and set the wlan0 with ip 192.168.2.2
      in pfsense the opt1 has the ip 192.168.2.1

      My wifi devices are able to connect to my wifi (hostapd) and get their ip's from pfsense(dhcp) but are unable to get to the internet or the LAN network.
      What am I doing wrong, thank you in advance
