pfSense port forward on port 443 not working

My setup: Router [192.168.0.1] - [192.168.0.112] pfSense [192.168.1.1] - [192.168.1.100] server
I have spent almost 5 hours on this and read over 50 threads. This is what I tried based on the suggestions I found in those threads:

  • https://192.168.1.100/ works
  • Other ports work (I tried https://192.168.0.112:8060/ which worked)
  • The pfsense web interface is set to port 8080
  • When NAT reflection is set to NAT+proxy, https://192.168.0.112/ works when I am in the pfSense network but not when I am outside.
  • When NAT reflection is disabled or set to pure NAT the port forward does not work at all.
  • The port is allowed in the firewall. I enabled logs for that rule, and it said the traffic passed. I don’t have any other rules except for the default RFC1918 and Not assigned by IANA rules.
  • My ISP does not block the port, it works without the pfSense router.
  • I had a pfSense router a while back but stopped using it because of complicated reasons. It worked back then, with the same setup.
  • I am checking this on my laptop which is connected to to the 192.168.1.1 network and on my phone connected to the 192.168.0.1 network.

1: Source addr = * and Source port = *
2: No, because I can access it using its internal IP (192.168.1.100)
3: it is
4: it is listening, can access using internal ip
5: isp is not blocking, it worked without pfsense
6: both tested from inside and outside
7: I don’t know what this means
8: 192.168.0.112 is the ip of the pfsense box, nothing in between
9: No captive portal
10: There is only one WAN and one LAN interface
11: Rules are in the WAN tab
12: -
13: -
14: Gateway = *
15: I have disabled UPnP

Solved. Suddenly remembered that there is a rule by default that blocks all traffic from local ips.
