Can't connect pfSense to my router
-
Hello Everyone,
I installed pfSense for the first time and I
have problems configuring the WAN Interface.I am using a USB wireless Adapter as the WAN
interface, and I can't connect pfSense to
the router.I can ping the LAN and WAN IP addresses,
from another machine, but I can't ping
the router.In Network-specific wireless configuration
I entered:
Mode: Infrastructure(BBS)
WPA: Enable WPA
WPA mode: WPA2
WPA key Management Mode: Pre Shared Key
I entered the preshared key
I also entered the Router's SSIDI noticed that when I entered ifconfig
I saw that the status is: no carrierCan anybody help me out? Thanks in advance.

Not all wireless devices can be used in pfsense (FreeBSD). Check:
For 2.0:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.1R/hardware.html#WLANFor 2.1:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.3R/hardware.html#WLANCheck here to make sure that it theoretically supported.
Past that, check the logs for any errors in wireless communication.

Thanks for your reply, I solved the problem, it was an configuration issue.
