        What is your WAN IP of pfsense???

        See mine above is 64.53.x.x (public) yours should be 192.168.2.x something.. If your wan of pfsense is connected to your fritzbox (and it is not in bridge mode)

                  I have some knowledge of this install.

                  Thje SG-1100 is installed behind the Fritzbox on it's LAN. The Fritzbox is also a DSL modem so reorganizing it is not immediately easy. It also has wifi so clients can connect to it directly bypassing the SG-1100 completely if they do not disable it.

                  The SG-1100 is using 192.168.1.0/24 on it's LAN and is connected to the Fritzbox LAN subnet via it's WAN, 192.168.2.0/24.

                  I suspect whatever is trying to 'see' the network drive here is trying to discover it in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet.

                  Can we see a screenshot of you trying to connect?

                        Ok.

                        You can't access it using that FQDN because it's not globally accessible. It can only be resolved when you are using the Fritzbox for DNS.

                        Do this. Add a host override to pfSense to allow it to resolve:

                        In Services > DNS resolver:

                              Yes. Because it can only resolve fritz.nas using the Fritzbox DNS server.

                              Add the host override so pfSense can also resolve that.

                                      In System > DNS Resolver.

                                      Click +Add to add a new Host Override.

                                          just go to the IP 192.168.2.1

                                          Here for example is my nas.. via IP

                                          hit the windowkey + R to get the run box put in \192.168.2.1

                                          nas.png

                                          To validate your host override is working ping the name from cmd line..

                                          example

                                          example.png

                                          Mine wouldn't ping because I have nothing on my network 192.168.2.1 - but you see how it comes back resolved the name shows the IP.. when I try and ping.

                                            The override you have entered there is for fritz.fritz.nas not fritz.nas which us what you are trying to resolve.

                                            Remove the host value. Make it look like my example:

                                            Screenshot from 2021-01-27 00-01-28.png

                                            Or just use the IP address directly.

                                            Or use http://fritz.fritz.nas since you've added that already.
