        Did you add the additional SSID to the AP. What you do is configure multiple SSIDs and configure them for the appropriate VLANs. For example my guest WiFi is on VLAN 3. This means I had to configure pfsense, my managed switch and the AP for VLAN 3, to connect to the guest SSID.

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          I have not reached to the point of configuring VLANs or APs yet. I am still struggling to get PFsense LAN IP relsolved to reflect the switch to have the same VLAN 1 IP range.

          Thoughts?

            How are you determining that? If you want VLANs, you configure them wherever you need them and you won't be able to see if you get the addresses, without something to connect to the VLAN. Also, did you configure a DHCP server on the VLAN?
