      I know there are many posts telling that pfSense doesn't support it. But most of those are old. And since it can be done in freebsd, I don't see why it cannot be done with pfSense.

      Because of my crappy ISP Router I have no options other than bridging. If pfSense doesn't support it then I'll have to fall back to Ubuntu setup.

        No. And please enlighten us how you can do it in FreeBSD on the below-linked bug. The only hint I found was the "'route-to lo0" and that miserably failed.

            Ok I read things carefully. Turns out the post I read was old version and new version broke support.

            Apologies.

              Well it simply never worked in pfSense, no idea whether it ever worked in FreeBSD but the 7+ years old hints about rdr don't produce any working result for anyone who tried.
