      Hey everyone, just build my first pfsense box, and I'm having trouble with my hdhomerun prime. Keep getting no available channels, and I'm guessing I need to make a firewall rule. I know its the pfsense box stopping it, because as soon as I plug in my old router, it works just fine. I can see the DHCP lease on the hdhomerun box, but no tuners are available. I have spend the last 3 hours trying to find out what i need to do, but no luck on google searches.

      Thanks in advanced

            So zero to do with pfsense ;)

            And your discover was on before on your previous network.  But then when you changed your router to something different windows thinks its on a new network.. So while you network and its windows profile before might of been private, when you change out the router - and the mac/ip change windows says Hey this is a different network.. Will use my public profile until my user tells me its safe..

            Window uses NLA, here this might help you understand how and why your issue happened when you change out your router.
