      I have PFsense 2.3.1_5 box , I have two WAN ,

      WAN1 has DHCP conf  and it send IP to PFSense with DHCP method.

      WAN2 has static IP , and it send IP to PFSense . (non DHCP)

      I setup Failover and LoadBalance on PFSense .
      everything work good ,
      but
      I do not know why PFSense box use all time WAN1 and use WAN2 sometimes .
      I want my PFSense box use WAN2 as Default Gateways.
      at LoadBalance config is set same Tier1 for two WANs
      but My PFSense use WAN1 as default
      I want PFSense use WAN2 as Default WAN.
      I think WAN with DHCP conf , choose first by PFSense Box

                Yes, I believe the problem is with SQUID. It won't work with 2 WAN and load balancing. It will route only through Default Gateway.
