What you mean?

@Martí-Ferret sorry for my previous post, It was a mistake.

What happens when you try, as a not connected user, to perform an nslookup www.google.es in your console ? Are you receiving a reply? If yes, which one? The expected reply is the real IP address of google (captive portal should not interfere with DNS)
Could you show me an ipconfig /all of your workstation so that we could know your DNS/DHCP settings?

Also, for the DHCP server...what is the DNS server that you entered? (your screenshot doesn't show that setting...)

Outgoing Network Interface : LAN ?
Change to default (or all WAN) and you be doing better if not fine.
(authoritative DNS server can not be found on your LAN)

Edit : True : DNS has to bet set up correctly - and should work for your devices, even when not authenticated against the captive portal.

ICMP (= ping) won't work if not authenticated.

DNS Resolving should work.

pfSense = 10.0.0.2 ? Ok, why not, but why not 10.0.0.1 ?

Martí Ferret

I was authenticated when i make the nslookup, and idk why i put 10.0.0.2, this is not the error true?

Gertjan

Who is 10.0.0.2 ?

Gertjan

My Resolver settings :

edit : the Custom options are not related - not needed.

Martí Ferret

@Gertjan The PFSENSE server

Gertjan

Firewall rules on LAN ?

Martí Ferret

@Gertjan I copy ur config and didn't work my captive portal. ;(
not all, just i disallow DNS query forwarding like you.

When you install pfSense, you setup WAN (if needed) and you change nothing, the captive portal works.
Ok if you change 192.168.1.0/24 for 10.0.0.0/24.

My firewall rules on LAN :

with these rules, you're ok?
( but such rules are mayne not ok for a Captive portal - just ok to start with )

Martí Ferret

@Gertjan 0
what rule i should have

Gertjan

As shown above - to start with.

Martí Ferret

@Gertjan I copy the second one and didn't work yet ;(

Gertjan

Afterwards, you can - and you should - adapt.
All depends on what type off public you have on your captive portal.
Familly ? You'll be fine?
Public network ? You should NOT activate the captive portal on your LAN, use a dedicated interface (OPT1) and depreciated rules.
For an example, I show you my firewall rules on my captive portal (a public portal - untrusted visitors) :

Martí Ferret

@Gertjan IDK why i put www.google.es and dont redirect but if i put 11.11.11.11 redirects to captive portal.
Before to configurate rules I want to get automatically redirected to captive portal not only if i put ip on URL

Gertjan

Test this :

Disconnect all captive portal users (tricky, you are on LAN - you will disconnect yourself).
At this moment, a "nslookup" should work.
In other words : DNS should not be blocked
If 10.0.0.2 is your DNS and gateway, DNS request will be passed. DNS will work.

If not : what did you change concerning DNS ?
