      Hi guys i have a small network here im planning to build a pfsense firewall to block internet websites i would like to ask if this set up is possible please see image below

      The RV042 router is still responsible for internet connection and dhcp while pfsense will act only as a firewall to block internet website or traffic and might go for VPN.

      Thanks and Best Regards,
      Darkstar

        Maybe the free service from opendns.com will be enough for you and save you from adding extra hardware.

            Finding the IP of Facebook isn't all that hard, really:
