      I need more bandwidth and CenturyLink has no options other than selling me a second DSL line. I am considering it. I have a Netgate SG-3100. In order to not do double NAT, the modem must be in bridged mode and the firewall doing PPPoE and tagging VLAN 201.

      My questions:

      • Can pfsense separately VLAN tag each WAN connection with the same 201 tag? I've never heard or seen this done, but it's what CenturyLink would require.

      • What type of logic does pfsense use when trying to load-balance two WAN links? Round-robin sessions? Does it analyze usage and use the least utilized next?

      thanks!
