      Hi guys,
      So i explain to You my problem.
      I recently passo my external ip address to my pfsense wan by bridging my isp modem/router. I had to use pppoe to Sucessfully do It.
      Now im with a relative big problem.
      My Linux and BSD based server/camera/IoT and Android works fine. They get the right lan ip, the can ping and surf the net.
      But when it comes go Windows 10 and a iPhone, they can connect to the wifi or hard wired, they grab the ip in the right range but they cannot surf the internet. From both my w10 machine i can ping my pfsense in both direction, i can ping the outside world (Google)
      But in the dhcp lease of pfsense i dont see the device.
      Now im thinking that if was a rule every device in my network cant go in the outside world, but is not like so because i can surf with other device(they were already there in the lan. I cant test a New device for now)
      My dns is 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 and 127.0.0.1 and one that now i dont remember but looks like an isp given one.
      If i do an ipconfig in Windows i can see that the PC grab the right ip.
      Now im not in home so i cant report what Gateway and dns Windows see. As soon as i can i will do It and post it.
      I have a dhcp server enable in pfsense.
      If i can give you more info about it to help me resolve this headache i will greatly apriciate

      Have a nice day and thanks
      Ciao
      Andrea
