      Here is my scenario in a nutshell,

      I am using multi-wan for two different wireless connections. And my speed slows down. I specifically use this for p2p downloading where I would obtain the most benefit. Here’s some details….

      WAN1 - Cable connection, very strong. Connected i=by itself 48MBs connect link.

      WAN2 - DSL connect - strong connect by itself are 28-30MBs

      When I run a load balanc on em my MBs lowers quite a bit. Example I looked at my interface status wit just my main WAN connected and I was connected at a nice 48MBs.. I enabled my (opt1) WAN2 and WAN1 dropped down to 24MBs and WAN2 received the same.

      I disconnected WAN1 to see the speed of WAN2 by itself and I was receiving a nice 32MBs, Enabled WAN1 and WAN1 received 54MBs while WAN2 dropped to 2MBs.

      So When both connetions are online in my balance pool one connections is extremely strong and the other very very week. Hence completely slowing my network down to a rediculous speed.

      What is going on here? any help would be great. Ill send pics, affidavits,
      sworn letters in blood, plz help ;)
