      Rules setup on the LAN interface?  If so then it should be working.

        *  LAN net  *  *  *  *  Default LAN -> any

        Thats the only rule on the lan interface atm.

            The problem isn't that I can't talk to each other compuer fine.  Its that before I login I still have access to all of the computers the network. (minus the pfsense box, and it blocks the net)

              The captive portal is only a traffic cop on traffic flowing THROUGH it.  We cannot reach out to your switch ports and magically start blocking stuff.  Make sense?

                I figured as much for the computers going through the AP, but traffic has to flow through it between the opt1(just the ap is hooked up) and lan.  Is the captive portal not catching it as the interfaces are bridged?  If so, is there a way to setup rules similar to a bridge where the captive portal could catch it?

                Thanks in advance.

                  Captive portal does not work on bridged interfaces (yet).

                  This is pretty much already changed in -HEAD (cvs).

                    At least its good to know that it wasn't that I was configuring something wrong.  What exactly do you mean in regards to that second part?

                      Look for this support in a future version.
