      Hi All
      I have configured Pfsense when I try to login from WAN i have got an error "An HTTP_REFERER was detected other than what is defined in System -> Advanced (https://.../). If not needed, this check can be disabled in System -> Advanced -> Admin." But when i have try to login from LAN its work fine.
      Please suggest me.
      Thanks in advance!

        you should never connect to the webconfigurator from the WAN, configure an access with openvpn
        not very wise to post that ip here, i suggest you to remove it asap 😓

            Usually when you see this it's because you are resolving the IP from an FQDN not refined on the firewall, so maybe a dyndns client running on something else or just a static DNS entry.
            You can disable that check in Sys > Adv > Admin Access if you know it's correct. Or you can add the hostname you are using to the list there so it accepts it.
