      Hi All,

      New to this forum so not sure if this is the best place to post this question but I am in the process of setup up 2x pfsense boxes for 2 sites.

      The sites both have there own internet connection and are currently connected via a VPN. My aim is to have the vpn link setup via the wan but also want to use the wifi link as a failover or another way for the sites to communicate. I had the wifi backbone setup as a static network and created a gateway so we could set it to do this but obviously i didn't think about how the networks either side would see each over. So really what im asking is how would be go about having a wifi link between the sites setup to where i can either route lan traffic across or have it go via the VPN setup via the wan interface or how i would set this up to failover if the internet at either site went off.

      Thanks in advanced and please note that im somewhat of a newbie pfsense.

      Kind Regards
      David
