        A comprehensive network diagram is worth 10,000 words and 15 conference calls.
        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

                …..

              If you don't know how to setup these devices, what about not using them ?
              Putting routers behind a firewall is already complicated and not usual.
              Take a switch.
              Hookup switch to LAN port or better : OPT1 port from pfSense. Activate Captive portal on LAN, or better OPT1 (and put firewall rules on Interface OPT1).
              Take one or more Access points.
              Hook them up to the swtch.
              Set up AP's, - be SURE to de activate internal HDCP servers, firewalls, whatever. De activate router mode if it has one. Do NOT use the WAN port if one is present.

              As said, keep it simple.
              Use LAN for yourself (admin purposes).
              Activate Captive portal on dedicated (== OPT1) segment.
              Throw a pas-all firewall rule to start with on the OPT1 interface.
