      @johnpoz Another issue. I have upgraded to pfsense 2.7.0-BETA, when I added a new interface for Guest's or hotspot, there is no internet on that LAN.
      Below are my configuration

      My firewall rule for the guest or hotspot lan

      My DHCP settings too

        If not fixed and still relevant : have a look at the unbound service.

        For a similar issue I had to enable "DNS Query Forwarding" where before the "DNS Query Forwarding" was not enable and never needed.

        The pfsense box itself had a working DNS setup, but DHCP clients behind the pfsense box could not connect due to DNS not resolving addresses issues.

          I see nothing here that indicates it's actually a DNS issue. It was just speculated that it might be a DNS problem.

          How is it actually failing on clients behind pfSense?

            Yes, I can access pfsense GUI using the domain name I resolved (https://firewall.mydomain.com) same LAN.

              OK so when you're testing from a client that cannot reach the internet how does it fail? What error do you see?

                The only thing I get with a client connected via cable and wireless is "connected, no internet" but I can access the pfsense GUI

                  Ok, so if you try to ping google.com from that client how does it fail?

                      OK that indicates a DNS failure. 😉

                      So check pfSense can resolve locally. Make sure the client is actually using pfSense for DNS.
