      So ive just started with this whole pfsense thing and i am getting quite confused.
      So i have 2 routers now. The first one is from my ISP It runs internet and TV trough the house to multiple switches it gives out 192.168.2.X IP's , then i have my second one (the pfsense router) connected on ESXI with a one adapter configured to recieve internet from my router (192.168.2.29) that my ISP provided me, and one to go to a switch that connects my other servers to it (192.168.1.X). now if i'm connected on a VM that is connected to the pfsense router (192.168.1.101) i can connect to the web interface and the other servers fine, but as soon as i try to connect from my pc (192.168.2.9) i cant access the web interface and my Vsphere client for my other servers.

      Does anyeone have an idea as to how i can solve this

      kind regards,
      sidney

        By default, you cannot connect to WebGUI via WAN, only LAN.  If you want to enable WebGUI from WAN, see this:

        https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/How_can_I_access_the_webGUI_from_the_WAN

        Also note you should edit your WAN interface (Interfaces - WAN) and uncheck the Block private networks and loopback addresses option.
