      Hello,
      from my provider I got the following IP-Adresses

      78.X.X.74-78
      subnet 78.X.X.72/29
      GW 78.X.X.73

      When I try to set up my Netgate-router, pfsense says, that it cannot create the gateway, as the gateway is in the same network as my IP-adresses. How can I setup the network correctly?

      Regards,
      Gunther

        use one IP address as WAN IP address for example 78.X.X.74/29 and GW 78.X.X.73
        and assign other IPs as VIP on wan interface
