Pfsense 2.1 PS3 and Netflix
-
Ok after days of reading and trying different things I still have no luck. Here's what's going on. Netflix on my PS3 is not working it will load a movie up (The red bar fills all the way up) but doesn't load anything.
UPnP & NAT-PMP is enabled.
Under NAT Manual Outbound NAT rule generation (AON - Advanced Outbound NAT) Enabled.
I tried turning off HAVP… No Luck.
This only happens on the PS3. Netflix plays on my NeoTV and Computers just fine. So I figured its something to do with the PS3 and a setting I have wrong somewhere.
Any help or point in the right direction would be Great!
Thank You

Yes I figured out my problem. Squid was blocking me. I went into Proxy Server > General Settings scroll down until you see "Bypass proxy for these source IP's" and add your PS3's IP address there. You can add more than 1 IP. Soon as I did that it took off working.
I did Static my PS3 machines and started UPnP & NAT-PMP then added each PS3 into the "User Specified Permissions"
Then in Added them into the Firewall.
I gave them Static IP's to allow ONLY them to bypass things. In my setup in pfSense I used the /32 to make sure and not the /24. Example 10.10.10.10/32
I really didn't care if the PS3's bypassed everything it's the Computers I'm worried about that's WHY I Static my PS3's.
I always Static everything I have Control over it better. I'm not a Big DHCP fan, but I do use it for Wireless, BUT I MAC address all my Wireless anyway so nobody gets in.

I haven't had problem with PS3/netflix and the 2.1 beta with Squid, transparent proxy.
Works well. -

So i got it to work and idk if this is a good/right way to do it but all i did was go to " Services >> Proxy server: General settings " and ticked Transparent proxy "If transparent mode is enabled, all requests for destination port 80 will be forwarded to the proxy server without any additional configuration necessary." & added the ip address of my tv but as i was testing i got it to work with out no ip address in the box.
So idk if this way is the right way to fix this issue but it works.
