Yes. Then set your wireless AP's gateway to the pfsense LAN gateway IP ( 192.168.1.1 )
It creates one more hop network-wise.. but hey it works. BTW I created a bug on this, but I'm not sure if they will be able to replicate the issue.. I'll see if we can get this resolved but for now this is a...
I don't think there is any other solution. It seems the proxmox OS is unable to use a VM as a gateway. I'd say this is a bug to be honest.. but I myself have not filed a bug on this. I'll look into filing it today and see if we can get it fixed.
No problem :) Took me days to figure out what was going on. But I think setting up a virtual firewall with proxmox must be rare, because seems like no one else knew what the issue was. The same sort of setup in ESXi works fine, so I had no idea that was the issue. Glad to help!
Alright, so the problem is solved. I figured it out myself eventually... : / Just in case someone else has this problem, the issue was because my firewall is virtual, and on the same box as the box I was trying to run apt-get on or any other external requests. So since my gateway was using the...
So there is yet another clue.. I've done further testing and it's not really ANY traffic that this happens to.. it's only external traffic. I tested a wget to my internal webserver:
root@proxmox:~# wget http://www.novacoresystems.com
--2013-03-30 02:22:27-- http://www.novacoresystems.com/...
Alright so it seems like it's just the way this machine seems to handle ANY traffic. When I do a telnet SMTP command to charter.net's mail server:
root@proxmox:~# telnet ib1.charter.net 25
Trying 216.33.127.20...
Connected to ib1.charter.net.

I believe I have an idea of what causes the issue. I created the interfaces file manually as per instructions online to get pfsense working with a WAN/LAN port with two different network cards. I created manually in the interface file the two bridges needed. I wonder if I could have used the...
Alright, so I've had this problem for about a week now and have tried to research it myself and figure it out but it just doesn't make much sense. So here is all I've done to diagnose the issue...
So here is what results when I try to update:
root@proxmox:/etc/apt# apt-get update
