        I forgot to mention that I run pfSense on a old PC and that I have a Linksys e4200 configured as a Wireless AP.

        My network:

        Internet –PC with pfSense -- Switch -- Linksys wireless AP

            Read the docs?  :) Believe it or not but I have already read the page you are referring to. I was looking for an easier, more straightforward solution than "Disable webGUI anti-lockout rule".  Perhaps this is the way to do it after all. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
