      Hello.

      I have the following scenario:
      Internet (Modem/Wireless) > Client > pfSense > Server.

      I am trying to access my server thats behind pfSense through Remote Access with a client in the Wireless network (Same network as pfSense/Server) but it's not connecting.

      Any ideas on what might be happening?

        @raulchiarella you would need to setup port forwarding to stuff "behind" pfsense. Also you would need to uncheck the block rfc1918 rule on the wan.. Since more than likely the wifi off your isp device is more than likely a rfc1918 network.

        You would prob have a better experience moving your wifi to also behind pfsense, either just connected to your lan network or other vlans you might be using.

        In that scenario you would need either an AP or old wifi router you could leverage as just an AP.
