I am not able to get pfsense to get an IP from my modem (Motorola SB6120 - ISP is Comcast).
I am also not able to get pfsense to give out IP addresses to either of my computers.
I have tried going through a Netgear GS108 and I have also tried straight from the LAN port to the computer.
I have tried both the 32-bit and x64 releases of pfsense 2.0.1.
My NIC is a Intel Pro/1000 PT Dual Gigabit NIC (PCIe x4), which is verified working by testing it with the rig in sig - both ports work fine.
I have also tried using the onboard NIC which is Nvidia.
I have tried disabling the onboard NIC.
I have tried manually assigning an IP to my computer in order to see if I can get to the web interface for pfsense... no go, can't even ping the pfsense box. Pfsense box LAN port is set to 192.168.1.1 and tried setting computer to 192.168.1.2. Both are set to a mask of 255.255.255.0.
When setting up the NIC in pfsense, it detects the ports as becoming active (UP) when I plug a cable into a port on the NIC which is also hooked up to either the modem, switch, or computer.
I made sure that I am using the correct ports for WAN and LAN.. got the port numbers by watching what port goes up when I plug a cable into it.
Any ideas?
