If you haven't figured it out already what your doing is analogous to adding more faucets to your plumbing. You can't pour more water than the main that feeds into the whole house.

Hi ermal!
thank you

good choice, it is what Im implementing on linux, with some trouble. But Id like to hear cases about pfsense behavior in this scenario without
further configuration (qos, etc). Or, maybe, opnion like "pfsense works well
in this situation, but only with qos configured".

Dude, that was brilliant.  Thanks a lot!

Just for completeness.
1.3 has support for multiple DYNDNS accounts on multiple interfaces. In fact you can even run multiple dydns services on the same interface.

Ermal

Support for this is committed to 1.3 please grab a snapshot and test it.

Well probably the best place to start is the doc http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Main_Page

Also try reading the stickies in the openVPN and IPSEC subforum.

And would this configuration give me an increase in speed as its not going through a specific NIC but 4 load balanced NIC's

In the past we've used the D-Link DSL-302T - I think the newer version is http://www.d-link.co.uk/?go=jN7uAYLx/oIJaWVUDLYZU93ygJVYKuJXStvhLPG3yV3oWI54gqltbNlwaaRp6z4sAmu5j3cf/YENBs7l3KLpL0YWte3f

Otherwise try the Zyxel 79x series - theyre very stable and not too expensive.

Thanks, so anyone with 4 or more modems and config similar to this?  :)

I think you could you get wireless router (linksys) and get it to do a site survey for the 2nd wireless WAN, this would then get the WAN IP onto the router, which you could then connect via CAT5 to the pfSense OPT1 interface.

You probably want to stop the Wireless Router from doing NAT.

This article is about something completly different.
Its about having two seperate networks with each their own router. This is not the same as having actually two routers in ONE network.

You could change your allow all rule on the LAN interface to use specifically that gateway, and then create allow rules above it for HTTP SMTP etc that use the failover for the gateway. That way, the traffic that doesn't meet the requirements above is only allowed through the main interface.

@Coldfirex:

Is this something that could be scripted?

I'm sure it is, but It's easier for me to manually switch my tunnels then to take the time to try to put a script together and test it.

my config is below

There is a bunch of stuff in the IPsec forum about using IPsec on secondary WANs and ideas about failover.
Here's a link that may offer some insight: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,6952.0.html

yeah ill definitely have to stop by one day and check out the set-up. This weekend I was messing around with pfsense though and I ran into a problem. I put a second wireless card in my pfsense box and was going to try to connect it to another network, but when I set it up as optional 1 it didn't give me the option for wireless. Do you know how I would set it up for wireless? I am already on one connection and I am getting about 20 mbps. I ran a speed test on mine over the weekend and was getting 30mbps. Anyways, I torrent alot which is why I am trying to get it set-up with a few different wireless connections so that I can do it faster, but I dont want to completely make their internet useless which is why I was  trying to throttle it. Let me know what you think about the situation.
