      My current router is Dual WAN, and it has an option to setup static IP for each computer, and what WAN to use, either 1 or 2.

      I have switched to pfSense, and I am not sure the best way to deal with this with pfSense.  I am not seeing an option for something like this.  Since I run several of the game clients, one on each computer, I would like a few to be on one WAN and some on the other WAN.

      It looks with pfSense, I may have to do this with rules rather than an option to pick WAN 1 or WAN 2.

      The ports that the game can use are UDP 9000-9013

      Each computer would use it own port.  Computer 1  Port 9000,  Computer 2  Port 9002,  and so on.  I guess what I need to make sure happens, is the same WAN the game starts to use, it will stay on that WAN port, until I exit the game.

      ugh does any of this make any sense?  please help  ;D

        To start with, you could add an ip adresse on top of the default rule using the 2nd gateway.
