      hello newbie here..
      I have setup a virtualbox pfsense with 2NICS onboard and a PCI NIC

      here is my diagram.

      ISP->Onboard NIC(WAN) DHCP Enable
      PCI NIC(LAN)->DD-WRT Router(DIR-600)

      my problem is i can't access the internet and i don't have a switch that's why i directly connected my PIC NIC to dd-wrt router's LAN PORT(1)

        Please help us to help you by proving more details:
        Can't access the internet from where?
        How did you attempt to access the internet? (ping? ftp? http? telnet? ssh? …)
        What was reported when you attempted the access?

          pfsense 192.168.1.1
          DD-WRT 192.168.1.2

            Have you disabled DHCP on the dd-wrt box?

            Can you ping something on the internet from the pfSense box? Via the webgui perhaps? Is it showing the WAN connection as online on the dashboard?

              ^ my guess as well.  If you don't disable dhcp on dd-wrt, then it would point to it as gateway - from your setup there is nothing connected to wan of dd-wrt.

              From a client that is trying to use the internet - lets see its config..  ip/mask gw and dns

              And yup - can pfsense get to the internet?

                yup i have disable DHCP on dd-wrt and on the advanced routing tab i set it on router (default gateway)
                on pfsense GUI the WAN connection and the LAN is up
