      Hi there !

      I have pfsense would like to forward a dhcp route(WAN) port to a machine behind pfsense.

      Here is my build:

      I have a WAN Router (Dynamic IP Address) from ISP which is connected to internet.
      I connect the WAN router to my pfsense - with IPv4 Configuration Type (DHCP)(I got a LAN IP which is assigned by the WAN router)

      I connect my PC to pfsense, I able to get online, but the WAN IP address port is not forwarded to my computer.

      I had create a NAT  rule
      Interface/WAN -> Protocal/TCP -> Source/WAN address -> Source Port/Any -> Destination/WAN address -> Destination Port/Any -> Redirect Target/'My PC IP address' -> Redirect Target Port/Any

      And I also set the DMZ on WAN router ;IP address = my Pfsense address

      Is there any configuration I should change to make this possible? ???
      My ISP doesn't Provide any user/pass for PPPoE configuration, it's plug and play basic. :-X
      I am sure my WAN IP address is accessible through Internet. It's not Intranet IP :)

        The source address in your rule shouldn't be WAN, it should be 'any'. Not sure about how your router is set up so if you need to make any adjustments there, you're on your own.
