        Referring to the end of that other post:

        from pfsense to AP - There is Ping

        That would go out from 192.168.2.1 on pfSense directly to the AP. So pfSense OPT1 and the AP have compatible (hopefully the same) subnets.

        from AP to pfsense - no ping

        I guess that was from AP, ping 192.168.1.1 - the pfSense LAN IP. In that case the AP probably does not know how to route to that. If you tried to ping 192.168.2.1 then that is good, but you will need to have added a pass rule on OPT1 after booting the LiveCD version.

        I can't understand what has happened here - the symptoms look a lot like an AP subnet/mask/default gateway problem. But it is pfSense that has been upgraded - so what is the real cause of the problem???

        Can you post the actual AP:

        • IP address
        • network mask
        • default gateway for LAN (or tell us that there is no setting for that)

        and confirm that OPT1 is 192.168.2.1/24 and has a pass rule with source any (or OPT1 net).

        As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."
