      I have a question. I have a expressVPN router in front of the pfSense firewall. The VPN is set at 10.105.17.1 and DHCP for the firewall. The firewall is set at 10.105.17.3 and then I have a DHCP router behind that firewall. I have been trying all night to get this working, I seem to be missing something here. Can anybody please give me a step by step configure for the firewall to get the DNS from the expressVPN router please?

        You have a router ( expressVPN ) and then a router ( pfSense ) and then a router ( DHCP router behind that firewall ) chained up ?

        You could make live much more simpler.
        pfSense can connect to Expr*ssVPN as it has a OpenVPN client. I know it works, as I have it working.
        A DHCP router behind pfSense isn't needed as pfSense can handle DHCP just fine.
        So, why not : get rid of a maximumum of boxes and have settings centralized in one.
        Or, another option, remove pfSense from the chain.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
