      To verify initiate some connections and check the state table: Diagnostics > States

      Indeed I can see only WAN and WIFI interfaces there. No WAN2 connections. :(

        I can see something strange on GW config. Even If I setup the MultiWAN as gateway, the default GW is now WAN2. Indeed, all traffic is now passing to this interface.
        I can move the default GW to WAN, and in this case all traffic go to WAN.
        There should be a way to setup MultiWAN as GW

            You cannot do load-balancing for clients just by using setting the system default gateway to load-balance gateway group. You need to use policy based routing on the LAN side firewall rule.

            Setting a gateway group for the system default gateway can be used for failover for the system itself there. See: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/routing/gateway-groups.html#gateway-group-options
