I'm not new to (almost) any form of 'computers' but I have no experience (as if that matters for anything) w/FreeBSD but do manage Linux networks at several locations.

I have installed & configured the pfSense on a hard drive and have read over several of the tutorials, but I stall can't get a block of data through the 'box'. So, I'm asking.

If I install a copy of (the stable) pfSense and properly designate the WAN & LAN interfaces, what else has to be done in order to get the machine to act as a NAT router (no firewall to begin with)? If I complete the 'Setup Wizard' (using the gui interface) should it work at that point? (I am aware that there is a checkbox the concerns private networks & that it has to be unchecked. See below.)

I'm using a 500 mHz Celeron w/128M RAM with a Realtek 8139 chipset as 192.168.254.1 LAN interface and a 3Com 3C905B as 192.168.1.100 WAN interface. The hardware does work 'cause a version 3 of Vyatta works fine in the same environment.

I hope that I haven't left out some info that is needed in order to answer my simple (?) question.
