    @johnpoz:

    The point is you can not have the same IP on the same network and expect it to work..

    Where did I say this can works???
    Sorry again if my explanations was not clear…

      You didn't - just pointing out this fact so everyone is clear ;)  How you create the different networks is up to you.

        @jaf:

        I think the problem is that my English is not so good, and my explanation not clear. :(
        Or maybe I'm an idiot? I hope not.

        And yes, I don't understand how it can be technically impossible to develop a VM integrating the 2 devices solution, and developing a special HMI to control all that. After, you call this VM "pfsenseMulti".

        Isn't this a heck of a lot of trouble to avoid the proper solution, that is change the IP address to a different subnet?

        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...
