      Hi All

      Installed pfsense using multiwans (3 wans) and have load balance up and running. All working sweet except 90% of the traffic is hitting only WAN1 with WAN2 and WAN3 not having hardly any.

      The reason for this is the main windows 2008 server is running a web proxy for monitoring all the connected clients internet traffic, for compliance, so all web traffic from the LAN is from a single IP address and pfsense therefore is not balancing it.

      Is there a way around this ? I don't mind switching to another proxy solution or other method of monitoring all web traffic (logged for 6 months).

      thanks

        I believe the squid package in pfSense 2.0 will solve your issue.  In 1.2.3, there is no way to load balance traffic passing through Squid for much the same reason that you have already discovered.  Load up 2.0 for a test and see how it goes.  You might also look/ask around the Routing/Multi-WAN forum for other advice.
