自從pfSense轉了用 Bridged GE+WLAN LAN, 每逢Router reboot,Windows 7 就會話網絡位置改變了。 Windows 7 的網絡位置會變回最安全的 Public, 開啟Firewall 並關閉檔案分享。
今日終於下決心解決它。
原來Windows 7 個 Network Location 用 Default Gateway 個MAC Address來認出位置,剛好pfSense個Network Bridge 又會隨機選一個MAC Address。每逢Restart Router, Windows會收到一個全新的Gateway MAC Address。
解決方法就是在pfSense裏設定Bridged LAN interface 用固定的MAC Address。

Finally, pfSense 2.0 router with AP working.
The tweak is, make both WLAN and LAN as opt interface, bridge them and make bridged interface as LAN
