        Do the interfaces show as UP in Status > Interfaces? At the correct link speed?

        Are they connected directly of via a switch? Do you see link LEDs?

        What are you using to connect them with? DAC cable, Fibre module etc.

                Do you firewall rules to allow ICMP traffic on each end?

                    It's easy to set them to TCP only by mistake.

                    You should see block entries in the firewall log if that's the case though.

                      Thanks i can ping the interface and because i am using it as a router i turn off packet filter.

                      i changed the parent interface for WAN to option1 (ixo) on both netgate appliance.

                          It depends what you're forwarding of course. It's not something I have tested myself (or is often used) but there are some numbers for forwarding only on the product page:
