How to use external gateway as Pfsense WAN?
-
I have "Tomato WRT54G" router that gets its internet wirelessly by connecting to another router.
Everything is on the same subnet, so i can do the following:Desktop > Tomato WRT54G(desktop's gateway) > Wireless AP with Internet
Works beautifully.but how can I channel this internet through PF by using Tomato is PFs WAN?

if Tomate WLAN-AP is doing bridging - and I think thats the fact - than you enter the IP of the router to which you AP is connected as the gateway of pfsense.
