      I trying to use an OpenVPN connection at my office.  The connection happens just fine, but when I try to ping any address it comes back as failed.  Not just pings, but any other connections as well.  I have a dedicated SDSL line that is there to run the VPN connections.  This line is setup in PFSense as the VPN interface.  It is static.  There is another dynamic line that runs normal internet traffic.  I have fail over setup between the WAN and the VPN interfaces.  I have setup a firewall rule on the PFSense box that should route all port 1194 traffic to the "VPNFailToWAN" interface, but it still seems to push out replies to the client on the WAN interface which has a slower upload speed.  I have added that IP to the OpenVPN client config file for now and it connects seemingly fine.  When I try to ping or access services inside the office network, no luck.  Pinging 192.168.4.1 gives me "Destination Net Unreachable" whereas pinging 192.168.3.1 gives me "Request timed out".  Any ideas?

      Office subnet:  192.168.3.0
      Home subnet:  192.168.2.0
