      In production I have a multiwan, with two lines: WAN1 with FWA and WAN2 with an ADSL, much slower.
      pfSense is configured with Load Balancing and Failover.
      Now, when I remotely launch a connection (using RealVNC), pfSense always uses WAN2.
      Not only that, during the session I see how the latency increases significantly without moving the connection to WAN1.
      This creates more of a problem for me, but I have no idea how to force some connections to always use WAN1, or at least move it to this one.

        @darkcorner I think you're looking for policy routing.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
