        Check your loadbalancer status at status>loadbalancer. Are all WANs up? Also how have you set up the pool (monitor IPs) and what rules do you use for the loadbalancer? Also try to ping an external IP. Might be a DNS issue. Have you setup your DNS correctly for MultiWAN?

          Yes all Wan`s is UP

          @hoba:

          Also how have you set up the pool (monitor IPs) and what rules do you use for the loadbalancer?

          Rules for LAN are:

          Proto  Source          Port  Destination  Port  Gateway                Description
          *  192.168.1.0/24  *  192.168.0.1/24  *  192.168.0.1
          *  192.168.1.0/24  *  192.168.2.1/24  *  192.168.2.1
          *  192.168.1.0/24  *  192.168.5.2/24  *  192.168.5.2
          *  192.168.1.0/24   *    *                      *  BALANSER
          *  LAN net             *       *                          *  *

          Rules for Wan`s are

          Proto  Source          Port  Destination  Port  Gateway                Description
          *         *                   *        *                      *    *

          @hoba:

          Also try to ping an external IP. Might be a DNS issue.

          When I ping         www.google.com

          Pinging www.l.google.com [66.249.85.104] with 32 bytes of data:

          @hoba:

          Have you setup your DNS correctly for MultiWAN?

          I don`t know what you mine by that

          I only want to use Outgoing load balancing
          Thans in advance

            You should use dns-servers from different wans and place a static route through the appropriate gateway pointing to the dns servers at the pfsense to keep dns resolution up if your main wan fails.

            Your mainwan seems to have been down (there was a change in it's status past the other 2 wans from your paste). It might be that your DNS resolution then didn't work thus making you think your connection was down. Set it up like described above and you won't use DNS on primary WAN failing.
