      I installed a PFSENSE. Wan ip set to DHCP to obtain. Lan ip is 192.168.1.1/24. DHCP client side to obtain 192.168.1.100/24, DNS is 192.168.1.1. Can not access the Internet. I manually set the Wan side IP to 210 .xxx.xxx.15/24, DNS is 8.8.8.8. The client side obtains the IP address 192.168.1.100/24, and the DNS is 8.8.8.8. It is possible to access the Internet. What is the problem?

        … , DNS is 192.168.1.1. Can not access the Internet. ...  DNS is 8.8.8.8. ... It is possible to access the Internet. What is the problem?

        After install, just setup WAN - do not touch anything else like DNS (keep the Resolver with default setting) : it will work.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          Ya man, don't get too fancy.  The default should work, THEN u can make config changes, and if after that is broke, now you know what broke it.

            You don't mention anything about how you've set it up, but if it's virtualised and you haven't turned off hardware offload, then that's probably the problem.
