      hi guys,

      i have a problem with pfsense.

      i have 1 LAN(192.168.0.1/24), 2 WANS and an another optional interface (opt2= 192.168.2.254/24) for WLAN.

      the opt2 interface is connected to an Accesspoint (192.168.2.1/24)

      my problem: i don't have access to the internet, or at least to pfsense from the AP and the wireless clients.
      LAN works fine. i can't even ping opt2 from the AP or the clients.

      the wireless config:

      Interfaces - WLAN (opt2):
      Type  Static
      Bridge with  none
      IP address  192.168.2.254 / 24


      Firewall - Rules - WLAN:
      *  WLAN net  *  *  *  *


      Services - DHCP Server - WLAN:
      Subnet 192.168.2.0
      Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
      Available range 192.168.2.0 - 192.168.2.255
      Range  192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.200
      (all other fields are left blank)


      The WLAN clients get an IP within the range 100-200 and are listed at DHCP leases.

      I also disabled the DHCP Server for WLAN, connected a laptop(192.168.2.xx) with the WLAN interface and tried to ping pfsense, without success….

      This config worked fine untill i set up pfsense on a newer system..

      greetings from germany :)
