      DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          OK it's not that. check the firewalls on the target hosts.

          Try to ping the pfSense interface addresses.

              No. From an OpenVPN client, man.

                im sorry if im new and not understanding this properly and i appreciate your help.
                isnt my windows 10 computer considered the client? this is a vpn connection on my laptop when i travel i have openvpn installed and i login and i can connect only to the main pfsense server that is hosting my openvpn to my laptop client as a remote access user auth.
                however the same pfsense main server has other openvpn connections to remote pfsense routers in 2 other office locations using peer to peer shared key, and from my laptop i can not access those remote offices that are connected to my main pfsense server at the main office

                  Your client is connecting and getting an address in the tunnel network, 10.1.0.0/24 (10.1.0.2)

                  It is being pushed routes to route 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.3.0/24 over the tunnel. That looks like it's working.

                  So from that connected client, ping 192.168.3.1. If that works, the VPN is working.

                  Then try to access a host on that network (or one of the others.) if that fails it is almost certainly a firewall on the TARGET host, not on the pfSense firewall. Windows in particular likes to filter connections to it to just it's local subnet. Yout 10.1.0.0/24 tunnel network will be outside of that subnet.

                    Don't take this the wrong way, but you might want to hire someone to set this up for you.
