Set the WAN gateway as default

@romanvekil
Exactly.

@romanvekil
So your client connects successfully and routes all upstream traffic to the VPN server.

The outbound NAT shown in your screenshot is necessary at all, but use the hybrid mode so that automatically generated rules are still active.

So what's the problem now?
If you are not able to access the internet ensure that DNS resolution is working on the client.

i did it but not helped
thanks very much for your answers

@romanvekil User connecting but Bytes in is 0 there is not coming traffic from server

Yes, I can see that the connection succeed as I mentioned. But 0 Bytes in is not really a good hint for what's wrong.
You will have to investigate your issue.

I already requested you to find out if the DNS resolution is working on the client. I assume, the browser doesn't load any page. So simply type in "1.1.1.1" in the browsers to check if it works with IP directly.

Did you try a connection also from another client?

[romanvekil]

@viragomann yes it not working even if directly write ip to browser. and even ping to 10.8.0.1 not going only pinging it self

@romanvekil
So there is a UDP connection to your WAN on 443 showing some Bytes.

Possibly sniffing the traffic is more helpful using the packet capture tool.
You can for instance capture the traffic on the OpenVPN interface filtering for host 8.8.8.8 and ICMP protocol, while you try to ping 8.8.8.8. If you can see the ICMP packets sniff on the WAN and try again.

Would like to know if you can see these packets on pfSense OpenVPN interface likewise. I suspect, you can't.
In this case, I'd recommend to tear down the OpenVPN server and start from scratch.
Have read some threads here in the past, where people complaining similar issues and never got it working.
