Hi. Pfsense n00b needing some help. Can't get net access for starters.
My modem ( half bridged mode ) IP is set as 192.168.1.253 / 255.255.255.0 ( I tried 192.168.1.1 / 255.255.255.252 to allow only 2 ip's but modem wouldn't accept that) The second IP was going to be used to allow access to the modem webgui from the plan - can't do that either.
PFsense box:
wan ip 192.168.1.253 modem
wangw 192.168.1.253lan ip 192.168.2.1 to switch
I can ping 192.168.1.253 from diagnostics, but can't ping outside.
Edit. Ping 8.8.8.8 gives me 100% packet loss.
Tried giving wan IP 192.168.1.254, left wangw as 192.168.1.253
I have been searching and trying other solutions I have read.
My modem is a modem/router with voip. It apparently runs in half-bridge mode. I have disabled nat, dhcp etc and only let it connect to the net and voip server.
Default any lan source to any destination in firewall/lan
also added lan net to wan net.Probably missed something simple.

I don't think half-bridge will work with pfSense, I had a configuration like that due to my ISP requiring PPPoA. I changed my modem in order to manage PPPoA–>PPPoE and get full bridge (pfSense will manage PPPoE authentication).
Said that, we need more details:
- Modem Brand / Type
- Connection Type
- pfSense WAN setting (screenshot)
- pfSense NAT outbound (screenshot)
- pfSense Firewall (screenshot)

Enabled NAT on the modem and everything is working.
What a PITA.
