      I have set up pfsense as per my VPN's instructions found here https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/pages/client-support/#pfsense_openvpn

      But the service won't start and I get the following error message in the log  "openvpn[8144]: Options error: –local and --nobind don't make sense when used together"

      Any help is greatly appreciated.

        OK so I got it to start by removing the "nobind" entry from the advanced box. However the internet now runs incredibly slowly to the point where google will not load.

        Does anyone know what is going on?
