      I've recently got an wifi pcie card and installed it on my sg2100 and made it access point.
      I want that the wifi will be part of the 5 lan ports
      So, I've created a bridge with the LAN & WLAN as members and kept the dhcp on the LAN.
      When I want to connect to the wifi does not get the dhcp.
      I've added a pass rule in the bridge and in the LAN and WLAN interface, but still no dhcp in the want.
      What can be the problem?

        Hi,

        These things can help:

        https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/wireless/bridges.html
        https://www.servethehome.com/how-to-setup-wi-fi-with-pfsense/ (old, but the philosophy is the same)

        Cats bury it so they can't see it!

              Also old now but we did a hangout on this back in the day. ๐Ÿ˜‰

              Some stuff has changed in 5 years but the basics are the same.
