      I bridged my Wireless card(opt1) to my LAN

      I then forwarded ports from WAN to LAN

      The internal IP is the wireless computer.

      Is there anything extra since the internal IP is from a bridged interface?

          What is your goal?

          I kind of dont understand what you want to accomplish und thus dont understand what your problem is.

          We do what we must, because we can.

            Ok well, I want the wireless to be on the same subnet as the LAN, so basic windows file sharing can happen between the wireless and wired computers.

            Also I want to forward ports to a computer on the wireless(OPT1) so bit torrent and a webui for my bit torrent client can work.

            internal IP of the computer I want the ports forwarded to is: 192.168.1.100

            So I forwarded those ports to that address, but I can not access the webui, nor is bit torrent working like it should be.

              now I'm really confused…

              I have VNC set up on my computer; 192.168.1.100

              the VNC works no problem

              I forwarded ports for uTorrent the same exact way;

              That does not work - torrents are slow, and the webgui can not be accessed via the external IP at all.

              Also, I turned on a remote management port for the pfSense webui; and I can use the external IP from my home computer; but when I'm at a different location; I can't get to the webui for pfSense...

              ...what's going on here?

                well, I think I got things figured out; I waited a bit after I made the port forwards; and everything works; I guess it's just not instant, is all.
