      So i'm trying to set up my home network into my pfsense box. I will plug all my ethernet connected computers into the switch but I have a wireless computer that needs to connect too. How can I hook it up to the network. I have a Linksys1200ac wifi router but it seemed to give trouble in dhcp off mode, thats why I bought a switch. So has anyone got any ideas? Router to switch; which ports?

        Try to set your linksys internet setting to Bridge Mode and connect a lan port to your switch.

          As always :
          Don't use the yellow port.
          Give it a static IP - point it's gateway to pfSEnse LAN
          Stop DHCP.
          If possible, set it to AP only mode.
          Done.

          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum.
