      I have googled and watched videos from youtube and tried tutorials on the net but I cannot connect to my pfsense VM
      I am running on an i7 32GBs ram
      I am attempting to have the 1st nic be my wan and bridged to my physical nic. 2nd nic is a M$ km-test loopback
      I am unable to connect to the web interface I have tried several different ip configurations and none of them work I can't get chrome or waterfox to connect
      I am able to ping the wan but that's about it.
      Thanks

        How are you pinging the wan when out of the box everything inbound to wan is blocked - even ping.. Did you allow ping on the wan?  My guess if you say you can ping wan and not access lan is you have the interfaces reversed.
