        changed subnet on wifi to 192.168.6.1 amd set dhcp 192.168.6.50 - 75
        net book connects and get ip can't ping any other interface and can't get web
        can ping interface ip of 192.168.6.1 but thats it. so dchp is working but nothing else
        same rules apply

        wifi

        • WIFI net * * * * none   allow clients on AP to access clietns on lan and wan 
          ICMP * * WIFI net * * none   allow ping firewall pfsense_AP

        don't fix it, if ain't broken !!!

            Can you do tracert from wifi clients to see where it's halting?

            One place worth to look at is Firewall:NAT and edit there manual outbound nat in use. You should see there automatic rule for lan net, you can add all others there too.

              ok found the problem had the gateway for the wifi set wrong fixed and working
              got 4 interfaces working out of 5 got some quirks to iron out but i think i got this figured out (as usual making it more complicated than needed)
              got another problem trying to get my other opt(subnet172) to go to wan and not any other interface
              rule for subnet172

              • SUBNET172 net * WAN address * * none   allow 172 to www

              should i change wan address wan subnet or?
              trying to prevent subnet172 access to other interfaces except wan
              once again thanks getting closer to my goal  ;D ;D

              don't fix it, if ain't broken !!!

                Easier way: create alias localnets. add every single localnet on that

                then create two rules:

                1. block any wifi localnets
                2. pass any wifi *

                that should do it

                  i have 5 interfaces
                  wan
                  lan
                  opt1subnet172
                  opt2kidsSubnet
                  opt3wifi

                  dont understand what you mean
                  i want to block another opt(subnet172) not wifi to all interfaces but wan
                  so if i read what you are showing create a alias and add all subnets include subnet172 and change wifi to subnet172 and this should work

                  don't fix it, if ain't broken !!!

                    think i got this do i put the rules under opt(subnet172) or under wan
                    i think this should go under subnet172
                    just making sure thanks!!!

                      Yes but it only to that interface subnet172

                      In pfsense rules are working on ingress. That means, if you add rule to LAN, it doesn't affect to subnet172
