            Do you have "Sticky connections" DISABLED ? It must be disabled.

            What I often do to test if Load Balancing is really working I go to
            maps.google.com and scroll in and out on different landscapes. When then having a look on the traffic graphs I can see bandwidth on all my WAN connections.

            In general the configuration looks correct. And if www.pfsense.orf/ip.php is working then LB is working.
            Do you use any other package on pfsense ? squid, squdguard, havp ?

                    The last screenshot looks a lot like what would happen if you had a 100 Mb LAN NIC, and/or a 100 Mb NIC on the client machine, or a 100 Mb switch on LAN in general. Is everything involved on gigabit internally?

                      I think now with my optinal Test, that is not a Pfsense Issue…

                      I have made an additional Netzwork Interface opt2 (lan2) thats route to opt1 (wan2)...
                      The lan roule i set to wan1...

                      then i attached another pc to opt2 for wan2
                      and my static pc on lan to wan1

                      the issue is the same... maybe the center is not allowed for more then 100mbit/s... i would tell next week...

                      here screens of pc 1 to wan and pc 2 to wan 2:

                          Hello dear PFSENSE Forum

                          The Problem was not Pfsense and Loadbalancing issue. It was that the Managed Switch by the technical instance was 100mbit/s…

                          Not the give me today a new Line in my House... Now is working with 150mbit/s...

                          Thank you all for your help...
