        I assume you mean this one:
        https://forum.netgate.com/topic/149179/openvpn-remonte-access-througth-dynamic-ip

        What exactly is the server behind? What is the wifi box?

        Telneting to the port should show nothing as that tests TCP and this is UDP. Where were you testing from? If it was some external IP then something else is responding there.

          Thanks you for your reply

          Well , the wifi box is like a router , we have a sim card , i insert this sim card in this router , the router work lika a access point with Dynamic IP

          I can't identify the error , i test my configuration with a static IP public (with Cisco router) and with the same configuration with a an author Pfsense , but It's not working

            The celluar router device gives you a public IP? They often do not.

                      Did you forward the OpenVPN server port from this Wifi Box to pfSense WAN?

                        Running OVPN-Konfig
                        Maybe Google Translator is your friend here but just follow the screenshots. They are more of less self explaining.
                        A must have is the installation of the openvpn-client-export package from the package manager which eases a lot the generation of the client installation file !

                          Yes, that 165.x.x.x public IP does not appear in the routing table so you are behind the NAT of that cellular router. You will need a port forward in place for that in the cellular router if you cannot pass the public IP to pfSense directly.
                          You can see on the WAN firewall rules that 0 packets and states have been passed by the UDP 1194 rules. No traffic from the client is reaching pfSense currently.
