    My setup is like this:
    Windows 7 host and 3x Vmware 1.2.3-RELEASE Appliance
    FiberOptic modem running 3x PPPOE session with same gateways.

    the first Vmware is the actual router which handles multiwan. Its setup to one PPPOE and 3x LAN.
    Second and third are only running because I had to make virtual gateways. Each runs its own PPPOE session.

    Now I got a friend with an static IP which should connect to the first PFsense router install. How do I do that?

    Also the ports are all closed. What the hack I'm doing wrong? Since I'm running this 2 additional pfsense install to make fake gateways. Do I still need to set firewall rules for each of them seperatly or must I do this just on the first router install.

        Why not VLAN the Vswitch in VmWare and do Vlan tagging on the physical interface??

          I have no idea what you just said. That probably why not.  ;D
          Not even sure if your suggestion should fix my closed port problem or make friends route static to my network.

          I managed to open the stupid port that way now that utorrent reports each try sucesfull when run on a multi wan setup. I just need to know how to bind One Fixed IP to one of the PFsense so it doesnt rotate over the IPS. Probably to the first one?
