      Im in the market to get a pfsense router
      SG-2440 pfSense® Security Gateway Appliance
      https://store.pfsense.org/SG-2440/

      My main reason for using pfSense is to use the Multiwan Feature

      I just got a 2nd WAN and would like to share it across both my Local Networks.

      My Network Setup

      Comcast Modem –> 24 Port Switch UNMANAGED

      The following are plugged into the UNMANAGED Switch

      --> ROUTER #1 (Asus RT-N16)
      192.168.1.1
      255.255.255.0

      --> 10 Computers
      IP 192.168.1.X
      255.255.255.0
      DNS 192.168.1.1

      --> ROUTER #2 (Asus RT-N16)
      192.168.2.1
      255.255.255.0

      --> 10 Computers
      IP 192.168.2.X
      255.255.255.0
      DNS 192.168.2.1

      When i initially setup the network i broke the network into 2 parts on purpose....

      My priorities have changed and getting Multiwan working across the 2 networks is more important than isolating the networks.

      I do not care if the computers from either network can talk/see each other now

      What is the easiest way to merge these 2 networks so i can get MultiWAN Working...

      I would imagine this can be done simply via routing tables

      The actual IP's on the computers can not change

      Let me know if there is anything missing.

      Thanks in Advance
      Eddie

        Where is your multiwan?

        Connect your comcast into 1 wan interface in pfsense, and your other wan into another pfsense interface.  Create whatever networks you want behind pfsense.
