      When doing a dig i was unable to do DNS lookups due to the following error

      dig @75.75.75.75 cnn.com

      ; <<>> DiG 9.11.1 <<>> @75.75.75.75 cnn.com
      ; (1 server found)
      ;; global options: +cmd
      ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

      I did a packet capture and it seems that the lookups are being sourced from the egree NAT IP and not the wan interface.  Is there a way to correct that?  I'm not able to install packages or forward DNS lookups because of this as well.  Thanks

        Well what are you outbound nat rules?

          Here is the outbound nat table, it still binds to the .3 address even if i disable the nat.
