      i had the inquirer that when i set my load balance, i notice that sometimes making the speed test in differents sites, in some case sum the speed of both WAN's , but sometimes not. ? both are set as tier1 into the configuration. there's any other option that i need to change to always use the two interface, unless obviously one of the WAN interface drop or down for any reason?

        Depends on which speed test you're using. speedtest.net now opens multiple TCP connections, but not simultaneously, which means your end result is going to be some combination and average of the speed of the connections. Those that open multiple connections simultaneously will show the sum of all the connections. Others will stick with one.
