      Hi, posting here although my firewall logs aren't showing anything being blocked.

      I have a simple 4 NIC router. One of the LAN interfaces (running DHCP) only allows the first IP in the range through. As I said, firewall logs show nothing being denied.
      Even if explicitly allow traffic from the 2nd connected IP it reports no internet access. I see nothing of note on any log anywhere.
      Other interfaces seem to function normally with the same config.

      Any troubleshooting tips?

        Can you go to Interfaces, click that LAN/NIC, and post a screenshot of the config?

          @kojyu Can the device ping the router? Ping out by IP (e.g. ping 8.8.8.8)? Traceroute? Check subnet masks on the router LAN and the device.

          To upgrade, select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings. When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, CPU, and/or disk speed.
          Only install packages for your version of pfSense.

            That's where I was headed too. :)
