Static IP no internet, Dynamic IP has internet
-
Okay, first things first, I'm very new to pfSense, doing most of my learning from Lawrence Systems on YouTube. On my network I was having an odd issue where the Wi-Fi clients wouldn't have internet access straight from being handed an IP via DHCP. But once I assigned the client a static IP, internet straight away. Clients (mostly phones) could ping various things on the network, but nothing outside of the network.
I tried to find like the "rules", but I didn't see anything so I'm not 100% positive if linking outside videos and whatnot is allowed, but anyways, I figured I'd follow a video by Lawrence systems titled "How To Setup pfsense OpenVPN Policy Routing With Kill Switch Using A Privacy VPN" as that was something I'd been meaning to setup and I wanted to reconfigure my Wi-Fi anyways. And now I have that all setup and going, but now things are the exact opposite. The dynamic clients are the ones that have internet, routed through VPN, but now no static clients have internet.
I only have a Wi-Fi router in bridge mode, but I was wanting to keep the dynamic clients routed through VPN while the static IPs would be routed normally. I know this is some sort of bad configuration on my part, it just really throws me off why only 1 set of clients has internet while the other doesn't. In my original setup, dynamic has no internet but static does, and now it's flip flopped.
DNS; running AdGuard Home on remote machine, set DNS IP in the DHCP services menu. I've tried pointing it to cloudflares IP instead, still no luck with internet access.
My other thought was maybe it was something in my rules that was blocking something, so I tried to move the allow all else rule to the top to try and test, but still no joy.
As far as I can tell, the outbound NAT rules are fine, as far as the automatically generated ones go at-least.
System / Routing / Gateways my Default gateway IPv4 is set to my WAN_DHCP as pfSense is connected directly to the modem and obtains a dynamic IP from my ISP.
I know I did something wrong, but I'm in way over my head as far as diagnostic measures go.
I'm sure it'll get asked what version I'm on, 23.01-RELEASE, but I've had this issue since before updating, so I know I goofed up, it's not a system bug or anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
