      good evening,
      I have configured a Pfsense 2.4.5 firewall in my network but the connected PCs do not connect to the internet
      These are the firewall rules
      FirewallRulesLAN

      What could be the problem?

        Can pfSene connect to the internet?

        Is the pfSense LAN IP the default gateway on the PC?

        Can you ping it?

        Is the outbound NAT working in automatic mode?

          1. Server Pfsense is connected to the internet

          2. On the PC the default gateway is the pfsense LAN IP (192.168.1.1)
            and the DHCP service also works

          3. from the PC I can ping the pfsense server

          4. the Outbound NAT Mode is = Automatic outbound NAT rule generation.(IPsec passthrough included)

          thanks

              no of the PC
              yes of the Server

                Strange.

                I'd investigate the problem with Packet Capture from the Diag menu.

                Take a capture on LAN, filter for ICMP protocol and 8.8.8.8 while trying again to ping from the PC.
                You should see ICMP request packets from the PC's IP to 8.8.8.8.

                Then take a capture on WAN. Here you should see the packets coming from the WAN address and responses from the server.

                  With Packet Capture I see the PC requests and responses.

                  I think the problem is "Automatic outbound NAT rule generation.
                  (IPsec passthrough included) ", in fact it does not create Automatic Rules

                    The packet capture will show if it works or not.

                      I solved it by compiling in the WAN interface "IPv4 Upstream gateway" and saving again "Automatic outbound NAT rule generation.
                      (IPsec passthrough included) "
                      Automatic rules have been created

                      Thanks
