I have my 3 computers pointed to pfsense, and i can access the WEBGUI but the internet isn't working. my modem is 192.168.0.1. Is there a specially way to setup pfsense? I know the IP Address changes everytime you connect. Can someone help me? Thnxs

pfSense uses per default the same IPrange as this modem on it's LAN.
Change the IPrange of your LAN to something else (172.16.0.1/24?) and it should work. -
Thanks it works now. Thanks you so much. I have another problem. I'll try to describe it as much as possible. How can I access my web interface of the modem from any of my computers to connect the modem sense its dail-up? without disconnecting it from the WAN port of the pfsense boxs? cause the LAN side and the Wan side have 2 different IP address. is there a way to access it even thou there 2 different IP address? thanks for your help

So in a diagram:
internet
¦

(WAN) - public IP
modem
(LAN) - 192.168.0.1

(WAN) - 192.168.0.2/24
pfSense
(LAN) - 172.16.0.1/24

clientsYou want to access the modem on 192.168.0.1.
You should just be able to type this IP in the webbrowser and it should work.
