Hi i am new to pfsense
i installed Pfsense on Proxmox, and i have 2 NICs one is WAN the other one is going to a UNIFY Switch that has some PCs, and one UAP AP, this a lab setup for now but will go into my new home....
very wired one of the PCs(my main one) is alwys getting a DNS error , all seems ok but when you try to ping or go anywhere all freeze
how whuld you debug such a thing? what logs to look in?
thanks! -
What is the DNS error you're seeing?
What is that client using for DNS? Is it being passed the pfSense LAN IP by DHCP (the default setup)?
Other clients connected to the same switch, in the same subnet do not see this issue?

the exact error is this
when i do ipconfig /release , renew
i will get the same ip,and for a number of secs it will work and then boom i am blocked again
i did not setup any block rules and even if i did the above release renew will not give me even
1 sec of internet? right?real bummer this one, i am moving to a new home and i want this done :)
thank you for answering me !

If it's only that one, then the problem is either the client or you have a rule that affects only it. However, since it works briefly, it's not a rule. It might help if you provide some more info or even do a packet capture.
Is that client using Ethernet? WiFi? Can you ping an IP address instead of host name? What happens if you try a different switch port?
-
Can that client still ping the pfSense internal IP address?
Can it ping 8.8.8.8?

hello guys thank i will debug with the above as i am curnntly away from the setup
and. the clinet is using Ethernet if i connect the same port same cable to another PC
i dont have any issues
