pfsense as a default getaway

[Alaa 0]

I have an ADSL combo router as the default getaway for my LAN network , with DHCP enabled in the router , the ip address for the router is : 192.168.1.1 , ip subnet mask : 255.255.255.0 , IP Pool Count : 101 . ( router brand is TP link )

I have installed pfsense on my laptop , and I need to use it as the default getaway for the clients pcs in my LAN network. instead of the router, please inform me how to do this.

I need to do this in order to use the bandwidth control feature in the pfsense
( because my router dose not have this feature )

so please inform me how to do this

Really you need two interfaces to do this. Assuming your laptop only has one NIC that generally means you need to use VLANs and a managed switch to create a WAN and LAN interface.

Then you should connect the pfSense WAN to the ADSL router and all the clients to the LAN.
If the ADSL router can be put into a bridge mode so it passes the public IP to pfSense directly that would be better.
