      Hello all

      I would like to prevent anyone from pinging / discovering any other person / appliance on a guest network. I have built the guest network on a vlan, and blocked address to all other networks, but I would like users to be hidden from each while connected. Saying it another way, when I log onto "myguestconnection" wifi, I do not want anyone to know I am there.

      How can I do this?

        That is not done on pfsense, that would be done on your switch or your AP... wireless its often called AP isolation where client A can not talk to client B... On a switch this called a private vlan where clients in the vlan can not talk to each other they can only talk to the gateway..
