      I'm not a pro
      I have 2 wans set to load balance and plex keeps switching between the 2 ip addresses, which causes it not being able to see outside the network due to port forwarding is set to the one wan. My question is there any way for me to force my plex vm to route through to one wan in pfsense?

        Yes, you can just set a pass firewall rule for he Plex device as source above the load-balancing rule and specify a single gateway.

        You should not have to though. The port forward coming in is independent of the load-balancing of outbound connections. It might be affected if the Plex detects the external IP and advertises that somewhere.
