      its possible can merge speed of 2 isp with a speed of:

      1. 50mbps
      2. 100mbps
        with total of 150mbps it possible?

      because my multi wan speedtest is total of 90mbps
      isp:
      1st. 50mbps
      2nd. 100mbps

      1st isp is static public ip
      2nd isp is dhcp.

        @jenskiebee I don't think so. The docs have a specific caveat:

        Some firewall features which support gateway groups only support failover, not load balancing. For example, when using a gateway group for the default gateway or as a VPN endpoint, each gateway must be on a separate tier.

        Gateway Groups

        Docs indicate that for a gateway group that's the default gateway, each gateway must be on a different tier so you only get failover. For load-balancing they must be on the same tier.

          The short answer is no... PFsense can't bond the two circuits together to give you 150 Mbps from a single stream.

          What PFsense can do... is provide 150 Mbps of aggregate bandwidth out of multiple streams using load balancing.

          I have seen appliances out there that will attempt to do what you're asking but to my knowledge... PFsense does not have that functionality.

              Bonding can be realized in combination with pfS as today only by a" bonding box"
              In front of pfS.... Oh boy I can tell you... A f@#&* pain in the ass
              Sometimes its working sometimes not the speed u get a total other ballgame
              And a 100+50 is not Givin you 150 its more about a 125 or less
              I got 2x100 and the best shot was 160...

              So now we use loadbalance and everyone is happy except the inner nerd ;)
