      Recheck that the CIDR you set for wan2 is correct.

          http://lmgtfy.com/?q=CIDR :) = subnet mask and 24 are most likely the value you want. 10.0.1.4 / 24

            Ahh yes.

            All of the IP's are on the /24 subnet mask. 10.0.0.0/254 and 10.0.1.0/254

            And I can ping the router, just not a website.

              There is a note on the ping page stating that  Multi-wan is not supported from this utility currently.
              If you want to ping / traceroute something from pfSense itself and out on opt1 you will have to create a static route. You use load balancing so try setting opt1 monitor ip to 208.67.220.220 and a static route will be created for that ip and that ip will then be ping able.

                Thanks. I'll try that. Allthough I am not very optimistic, because even when I make the monitor ip for wan2 googles ip or some internet ip, the load balancer still says offline.

                When i make the monitor io the routers ip and the loas balancing shows everything as active, then I lose all connectivity…

                    Okay, this is really weird…

                    I can ping something, eg google.com 74.x.xxxx whatever.

                    I receive a reply, but as soon as I add that to the monitor ip, it is no longer pingable???

                      I would recommend that you use traceroute instead of ping, so you know your using the right gateway.

                      FYI There is a pfSense book for sale that could guide you.
