Hello, I see you're experiencing issues with your guest network not connecting to the internet. It sounds like you've set up the interface in pfSense and assigned the right IP for your VLAN, but when trying to access the internet, you're getting a DHCP IP that doesn't match your VLAN. Since you've disabled firewall rules on the LAN interface, it might be interfering with the connection. Double-check the VLAN settings and ensure the DHCP server is properly configured. Let me know if you need further help!

Check if the VLAN is connected to your WAN link. Verify that client machines receive correct default gateway and DNS server addresses.

At first, organizing this material felt simpler when I shared pictures of my guidelines. Usually, others noticed the issues quickly. Mostly, it was my own mistakes or things I missed.

The setup looks good. My iPad is now connected to the network, and it's displaying the right IP address, subnet mask, and router information.
