With static IP address, pfsense clients cannot access the Internet.

hi

With static IP address, pfsense clients cannot access the Internet. When I try the same system on a modem that does not have a static thread, no problem. What would be the reason.

That's the same mazy text as in your other thread!

What static IP you're talking about? WAN or the clients internal IP?
If it's WAN, has your pfSense internet access?
How is the pfSense box connected to the internet?

before thank you
The IP address of the internet service provider to the modem is static. in this way does not go online. However, there is no problem when I connect to another modem that does not have a static ip.

My ISP statick ip address 78.186.95.153/32. modem ip 192.168.1.1/24 ,pfsense wan ip 192.168.1.3/24. LAN ip 192.168.8.1/24. I can ping the modem. but I can't go to the internet.

[viragomann]

Have you entered the internal modem IP (192.168.1.1) in the "IPv4 Upstream gateway" box in the WAN interface settings?

[mp26]

yes i entered

Check if pfSense able to reach the update server on the dashboard.

If it isn't, you will see an error massage here.

If pfSense can reach the internet post your LAN firewall rules and the outbound NAT settings.

So if your pointing to some rfc1918 address why are you doing anything with static on pfsense? Just set its wan to dhcp and let your "modem" hand it an IP.. Since your clearly doing a double nat.

BTW if its natting its ain't a "modem"... Modems do not route nor do they nat.. What is the make and model number of this isp device - most likely a gateway.

@viragomann yes latest version. lan settings default settings.

System / Routing / Gateways

Set your default gateway. Don't use automatic if you are on the release version.

@mp26 no problem when I use an ISP without static ip. My site is running.

[mp26]

@chpalmer yes entered default gateway 192.168.1.1 modem ip.

[johnpoz]

Dude if your wanting to set this IP on pfsense - it has ZERO to do with 192.168.anything..

And /32 does not give you anywhere enough info to make it work... What is the gateway IP address to set when using this static? And more likely then not your device from your ISP will have to be put in bridge mode.

[viragomann]

@mp26
If your pfSense is behind a (router-)modem with NAT, the internet access has nothing to do with static or dynamic public IP. The Public IP is managed by the router and pfSense uses the router as gateway.

[johnpoz]

^ exactly... What is the make and model of the device you got from your ISP... And what are the exact details your ISP gave you for setting up static... It sure and the hell is not some IP/mask - you need a GATEWAY IP to make that work!!!

[mp26]

@viragomann The static IP doesn't have the same settings. The problem arises when the static IP gets static IP.

[mp26]

@johnpoz my device tplink w9970 modem. ip 78.186.95.153/32.

[johnpoz]

That is NOT a modem its a freaking gateway that is a NAT router... What IP it has on its wan has ZERO to do with pfsense..

If you want it to be a MODEM then here

Then if you want to set a static public IP on pfsense your going to need more than IP/mask - you have to KNOW what its gateway is!!!

This system will be used in school. it is quite important to me. I am computer teacher. I'm waiting for your help. I don't have static IP with the same modem.

[mp26]

I'm having trouble with dsl not using static ip with same modem.
