        By using its IP address? If the wifi is on a different interface than LAN, then you need to add an allow rule on the wifi interface so that wifi traffic can get to LAN. Such a rule is not there by default. Only LAN gets an automatic allow-all-to-any rule. All other interfaces start with nothing.

          How exactly is wifi setup... Is it another interface off pfsense? Or are you using some old wifi router doing nat? to your 192.168.0 network?

          Going to need to know a bit more about how your network is setup to help you figure out why you can not access your server.. Also don't forget the windows firewall, you coming from a different subnet is prob blocked on it, etc.

            He said he's using his cellphone. Would that still apply?
            If he's using his cellphone on wifi, it hits the wifi device first. no?

            Just wondering. Shouldn't he need to check that his wifi device IP is allowed /Natted properly to forward packets from that device first?

            I'm having a similar situation so I'm glad the OP posted this.

              The firewall he's talking about would be on the server.

              If he's using his cellphone on wifi, it hits the wifi device first. no?

              Wifi devices connect to access points which are either connected to LAN, or their own interface or VLAN.

              Shouldn't he need to check that his wifi device IP is allowed /Natted properly to forward packets from that device first?

              Huh? If his AP is on LAN then it should just work. Anything else could be lots of different reasons for lack of connectivity. We don't even know anything about his network topology so we're just guessing and that's not productive.

              Post your problem as a separate thread.

                      @shawnlouis Post your problem in a new thread and provide relevant details like what you are trying to do, what happens, error messages, and your LAN rules & config.
