      Hello,

      I have two DSL connections.
          They both are "gateway load balanced" (for outbound connections)
          using pfsense.

      And It is working fine.

      Now I want to use OpenDNS.

      As my outbound connection is going to alternate between
          2 interfaces (i.e. 2 DSL connection), I assume that external
          site like openDNS would see me as having 2 IP addresses.

      What IP address should I update with OpenDNS?
          And how to make this dual WAN setup work with openDNS?

      Thanks,
      -Senthil Kumar

        System -> General Setup
        add the two OpenDNS ip's and untick "Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP/PPP on WAN"
        Then add a static route for each OpenDNS ip, using 1 of them for wan and 1 for wan2.
