      Hi,
      I have no access to internet or PFSense GUI on hardwired clients, only wireless. Hardwired clients are getting an IPv4 address, but I cannot ping any external sites.

      Where should I start?

        Use Wireshark, or at least Packet Capture to see what's happening on the wire. If you use Packet Capture, you can download the captures to analyze with Wireshark. You get a lot more info that way.

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        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...

          @bumzag IP4 IP contain valid GATEWAY parameter?

          Go to a website and if...

          Comes back and says "site unknown/not found" = DNS broken.
          Comes back and says "unreachable" = no Gateway, IP4 missing/wrong param(s).
