      Hi,

      I am trying to get this proxy service working and I am unable to ping the WAN and LAN interface. The LAN and WAN interfaces are in two different subnet with two different default gateways. Can some one please advise.

      Thank you in advance

        1/ What proxy service?
        2/ You should NOT have any gateway set on pfSense for LAN
        3/ Ping output and firewall rules screenshot missing and my crystal ball is broken.

          You can't ping WAN unless you allow ICMP.  WAN has everything incoming blocked by default.

            you can ping the wan address from the lan side with the default rules. Not sure what a proxy service has to do with icmp?

            Sounds like to me he put a gateway on the "lan" which I just am blown away at how many times that comes up..  And yup will break it pretty bad..
