      Hi Folks,
      OK, I have moved from one ISP to another. I have NOT done a DHCP to Static change (Cable to Fiber, same company). I'm guessing there is not a lot of difference. Here is what they sent me:
      Gateway- 184.74.107.193/29
      Subnet – 255.255.255.248
      Usable - 184.74.107.194 thru .198

      So I should be able to set the router to:
      IP: 184.74.107.195
      Subnet: 255.255.255.248
      Gateway: 184.74.107.193

      The rest shouldn't matter as far as I can tell.
      Thanks in advance!

        Yes that should work. In pfSense the subnet is is defined using CIDR notation so just set it as /29.

        Though I would probably use the first IP in the subnet .194

          Appreciate it. I just logged in and checked out what happens when you tell it to be static. I see all of the settings. Notice I had to add the gateway and set the CIDR. Simple enough!! It should go smoothly ;-)
