I'm afraid you missed the concepts of vlan's. A vlan is a separated network (LAN). To separate the networks vlan tags are used in stead of different switches. * a vlan has it's own IP range * traffic between vlan's must be routed by a router. Why do you want to use vlan's? For learning purposes? If so: vlan 0: * create vlan0 * connect wifi access point to vlan 0 switch port * AP at 192.168.0.2 * em1_vlan0 on pfsense at 192.168.0.1 vlan 1: * laptop 1 at 192.168.1.4; * define em1_vlan1 in pfsense with ip 192.168.1.1 vlan 2: * laptop 2 at 192.168.2.5 * define em1_vlan2 in pfsense with ip 192.168.2.1 The pc must be in clan 1 or vlan2, both is not sensible Wifi is in separate vlan (vlan0) in pfsense: * define vlan's * configure the vlan interfaces (OPTx) * define firewall rules, otherwise there will be no traffic at all * define outbound NAT rules if all vlan's must be capable of access the WAN * define the DHCP server settings for all van's Does this help?
