      Please help  :-[

      WAN - ISP PPPoE
      LAN - 192.168.2.1/24
      OPT1(WAN2) - ISP DHCP
      OPT2(WLAN) - bridge LAN

      • WLAN devices can get ip from pfsense DHCP and access internet.
      • All LAN devices can list under windows neighborhood, but WLAN devices cannot.

      I want WLAN devices can access local network resources

        Did you create appropriate firewall rules on the WLAN interface?
        –> A rule to allow DHCP requests
        --> A rule to allow traffic from the LAN subnet to the internet.

        We do what we must, because we can.

          Yes. Device under Wireless LAN can get DHCP from pfsense and access internet. But failure to access intranet resources

          Already set "bridge" with LAN
