      Hi guys, Good Night!

      I  have an appliance D-link DI-LB604 to do Loading Balacing with 2 cablemodem links (12 MB each).

      But this appliance sometimes break, reboot and I don`t  know why.

      I would like to change this appliance  for the Pfsense 1.2, but I have some questions: 
      1 - Can I load balancing with more than 2 links? 
      2 - The cablemodem give me only one option (a dynamic IP (DHCP) ) . Can I load balacing with dynamic IP? 
      3 -  Is corretc to say that the load Balancing work well with a kind of traffic like peer-to-peer?

      Sorry this questions, but I have some doubts.

      Thanks  very much!

      Best Regards

      Rodrigo Gomes

        1: yes
        2: yes, but the different WAN's have to be in separate subnets and cannot have the same gateway.
        3: it works well for me for bittorrent traffic.

        We do what we must, because we can.
