Problem with bitmask 30
-
My ip config:
xx.xxx.106.142
mask 255.255.255.252
GW xx.xxx.106.141When i configure pfsense with it (bitmask 30) i can ping modem (141) but nothing behind him.
When i use bitmask 2 i can ping some www site. All port are blocked by modem.. When i use bitmask 29 i can ping all and any port aren't blocked.I dont uderstand it.. Why it work on other netmask?! And why not work on my mask??

It should be configured with whatever your ISP gave you to put in. A netmask of /29 vs /30 changes the network id.
You also said "When i use bitmask 2 i can ping some www site"…. what is "bitmask 2"?

bitmask 2 i mean /2
When i use /30 (like i get from my ISP) it wont work… (on tp-liink router 255.255.255.252 works well, on pfsense wont work)

We're missing some details… So, when you were on your tp-link router was your WAN set to DHCP? Or are you paying for a static IP block?
/2??? A mask of /2 would include almost every IPv4 address out there.... you wouldn't be using that.
