Pfsense home lab vlan connectivity issue

The_G

I'm pretty new to pfsense
I've set up VM's in Esxi in my home lab for pfsense, Windows 10 and 7. And there is an issue with inter-connectivity inside vlans.

home gateway router 192.168.0.1
pfsense wan 192.168.0.10/24
pfsense lan1 192.168.1.1/24
pfsense lan2 192.168.2.1/24

Windows 10 192.168.1.100/24 - can ping all pfsense interfaces, home router and Windows 7
Windows 7 192.168.2.100/24 - can’t ping any other interfaces
pfsense can ping 192.168.2.100 , but cannot ping 192.168.1.100

Problem being i would like Windows 7 to have pfsense lan2 as gateway and to ping-able.
Second problem is why can’t pfsense ping Windows 10?
Also i'm not sure how i might need to set up lan2 to send routes to pfsense wan as it's internet gateway

Windows firewall will block ping replies by default. Run a search on how to enable ping reply in Windows firewall.

The default pfSense LAN interface, 192.168.1.1/24, has a default firewall that passes ICMP just fine.

The OPT1 interface - or whatever name you gave it - has no GUI firewall rules. So, by default, nothing** enters. That includes ICMP.
So, what firewall rule did you put on OPT1 ?

** there are some exceptions, as DHCP traffic.
