Re: can't get a single vlan connection to get an IP from pfsense
Looks ok from what you have posted here on the switch side. Ensure there is a dedicated network (IP subnet) with a DHCP server, with routing or NAT-routing to the Internet configured.

Re: can't get a single vlan connection to get an IP from pfsense
appreicate the reply. I've been up all night trying to make it work... it's now in a box with a return label on it. I don't _need_ it at my house as I have two physical networks that work just fine.. and i'm just not smart enough to figure it out... so back it goes. cheers.

Re: can't get a single vlan connection to get an IP from pfsense
Hi, agree 100% that the problem isn't likely the switch, but it's the thing I _can_ return and I don't have the time or patience to learn the details of pfsense to the nth level. What this adventure reminded me is that making something too complex for what is needed is a mistake. I already have high availability in my pf boxes with working failover (who needs that at home??), and two separate (physical) networks to separate home and guest traffic. Maybe in a year I'll get the itch again to mess around with it. I appreciate your willingness to help!
