      I have setup like two WAN & One LAN.

      WAN1 - Active ISP with static IP
      OPT1 - Active ISP wiht DHCP.
      LAN - 192.168.1.1

      I am trying to ping from the diagnose utility from the pfsense  i got the reply from the WAN interface. but when try to ping from the opt1 it fails. >:(

      I am trying to install in fail over mode.
      Thanks for your help in advance

        That's normal behavior as also noted on the page.

        As a test I sometime use traceroute to my monitor ip or to other dns servers I've added a static route for.

          Do you added this route manually.

            yes (system ->) if it's not the monitor ip as a static route is auto created for those.

              Thanks
              I tried but failed to create the same.

              I am not able to setup dual Wan auto fail over configuration. it's working fine on wan 1 but when wan 1 fails it's not shifting the LAN traffic to OPT1

                Can you show a screenshot of your pool and the firewall rules on your LAN?
