    If you need to use squid, you could put it on a separate firewall or server that is behind pfSense.

    @cmb:

    OPT2 probably has the same gateway IP as OPT1 or WAN, which won't work. Put in a NAT box between if that's the case.

    Thanks !! That was exactly the problem, the funny thing is that the modem itself renewed the offer from the DHCP and changed the gateway to the same of the WAN !

    Anyway, thanks !  ;D

    @enrico1976:

    I have the same situation discussed on a previous post:
    http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=9542.msg54139

    It seems there is not a solution on this thread.
    Is this right?There is a way to instruct the OpenVPN gateway different to the default gateway on pfSense?

    Yes there are options, depending on whether it's a client or server. It's detailed in the book.  http://pfsense.org/book

    No, not with any open source solution I'm aware of (without hacking monitoring scripts yourself to modify routing based on throughput).

    @djc6:

    @GruensFroeschli:

    No you dont need static IPs on your WANs.
    However what you need is different gateways on the different WANs.

    Is this so you can ping the two gateways to see which link is up?  My Time Warner Cable and Verizon DSL gateways would always be different, since they own different IP spaces.  However, my gateway COULD change and my Dynamic IP changes - do you have to manually tell pfsense what gateway to check, or does it just automatically check the gateway that is handed down via DHCP?

    This is to be able to differentiate between different WANs.
    You can only have one gateway per interface.
    And the interfaces need to have different subnets.
    (Otherwise you cannot route)

    @GruensFroeschli:

    One common setup is to have a modem-routers in front of the pfSense which do NAT.
    Then have static (private) IPs on the pfSense.

    Wouldn't this lead to double-NAT'ing?

    Thanks for the reply!

    Yes this would lead to double NATing.
    But this shouldnt be a problem since in most modem routers today you can define a "DMZ-host" to which all ports will be forwarded.

    Hi,

    Problem solved…..

    Shame on me...
    Deleted and recreated all load balancing pools & rules. Good occasion to clean up things. working fine now.
    For the arp story, it was clearly a nonsense from me. The network range from the modem is set to 192.168.10.X after my lan 192.168.5.X... The arp tool scan/sort results ip by range, ascending...
    I saw all my wans and then my lan machines so I stopped... So stupid (and impatient) I am.

    Good lesson for the future, be patient and think few seconds.

    Sorry for disturbing you and thx again for your answers.

    Hi

    I think the problem is tha Squid currently supports only 1 gateway (WAN1).
    Disable squid transparent mode.

    Both are dynamic, but rarely change so a static route might work.

    Though I'm not sure anymore that it was a problem in the pfSense setup.

    Uhm… a DualWAN bridge?
    This will not work.

    For multiWAN you always need at least a routed setup (or NATed if you dont have public IP's on your LAN).

    Just a quick update To state that I was stuck because of this bug back then:
    http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/show/111

    Solution listed by cmb
    http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,19763.msg101819.html#msg101819

    My home IP used to end in .225, it changed to a new range when I had my cable modem changed due to phone issues (voip at home from our provider) That coincided with the reinstall of the setup.

    Funny how things turn out =)
