FSecure Freedome VPN and pfsense firewall ?

buggz2k

Anyway the FSecure people would support setup Freedome VPN with the pfsense firewall?

I sincerely hope so, otherwise I will have to switch, sigh...

Freedome VPN overrides the pfsense DNS Resolver.

I need help to not have this happen.

Hi @buggz2k

May I know in which operating system that you have installed pfsense and Freedome VPN?

You can refer this KB article to see what protocols are used by Freedome. Did you allow the protocol in your pfsense firewall?

Sometime you need to add the port numbers that can be found here in your home network in order to connect Freedome.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.  Hoping you and your family are healthy and safe.

I have a standalone pfsense box. 

Of course, it is the community version of Netgate FreeBSD that anyone can download and use.

2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)

built on Tue Jun 02 17:51:17 EDT 2020

FreeBSD 11.3-STABLE

I have been enjoying the use of FSecure Freedome VPN on my Windows 10 stations for some years now.

I was wanting to integrate the VPN to the pfsense station, like the instructions NordVPN has:

https://support.nordvpn.com/Connectivity/Router/1089079142/pfSense-2-4-4-setup-with-NordVPN.htm

Currently, I have no problems running the VPN client seperately on each Windows 10 station.

I also learn that the VPN will force the use of its own DNS, this seems to be the case for every VPN?

I was also wanting the VPN to use the pfsense DNS Resolver. Is this possible?

Thank you for your time, stay safe.

I have found another guide for a different VPN service that I would NEVER use:

https://blog.networkprofile.org/private-internet-access-vpn-on-pfsense/

However, the guide itself is very informative.

I would be willing to beta test any guide FSecure comes up with.

Please let me know.

Thank you for your support!

Any thoughts from Fsecure on the information needed to inegrate with pfsense?

I think it would be a huge win for Fsecure.

I would like to request this as a feature request,

FSecure Freedome VPN integration with pfsense.

Thank you for your support!

Hi @buggz2k

Please find the response from our Freedome team "We don't currently have plans to add that functionality(FSecure Freedome VPN integration with pfsense.)."

Okay, thanks.

Sure would be a nice plus to have, I would help test, etc...

It would cover all OS types.
