        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          There is no schedule on any of the three rules.  My spacing's most likely off.  Maybe this will be better:

                Looks fine.  Unplug one and see what happens.

                  Well dammit.. I unplugged WAN2 which is the (default GW), my youtube stream didnt even hiccup.  Now after plugging it back in, it's GW showed up then down.  Bounced that dsl model.. still shows as down.  disabled/re-enabled that WAN2 interface.. still shows as down.  Line is up though to the modem as indicated by my test laptop.  Im afraid I'll have to bounce PF, even though i shouldn't need to.

                    How long did you wait for it to recover before you started messing with it?

                      Are the modems in bridge mode? (do your pfSense interfaces get public IPs?)

                        Crisis averted.

                        But no I'm cursed with Motorola NVG510's, so I only have IP Passthrough mode.  I've been through all the posts from previous folks with these same DSL modems and for whatever reason I am not afflicted with the same crap they were.  DHCP giving out the incorrect subnet, or the wrong gateway…  Maybe I can draw a decent picture for you to better understand.  Now I do understand that IP Passthrough by design should hand off the public IP to a specific internal MAC address, this doesnt happen in my setup for whatever reason.  I can, however, successfully browse the interwebs in all it's glory.

                        I will admit though, prior to tonight I had the same subnet used for the DSL modems DHCP range and I did internally... 192.168.15.x

                        I tried rebooting pf in an attempt to resolve the WAN2 being down from last night (which it did come back up) the problem was though, that for some reason even though the console was showing all interfaces up I couldnt even ping the LAN side.  i solved that by changing the subnets from 15 to 10 as I saw massive scrolling texts on the pf console complaining about the wan and lan sides having the same subnets.

                        Now WAN is still down and I have a ticket open with ATT schedules for a tech to resolve it tomorrow... but as I sit right now I have WAN2-3 up and operational.
