        I don't think you can. It would appear as though all the traffic was with the laptop, not WiFi behind it.

        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...

            That sort of thing is often achieved by using a very low TTL value to prevent routing. People occasionally ask about doing the opposite of this to bypass such restrictions. However I'm not sure there is any way to do that in pfSense. Not in the GUI at least.
