      I updated to snap 2-14. Still have trouble with a long delay in the loadbalancer status page. Removed the 2 rules i'm not using, and left only the 1 rule to failover from wan1=>wan2 and voila it works. fails over, and restores route to wan1 when line comes back. Perfect. It only takes about 30 seconds.

      Whatever was changed did the trick. Hopefully it remains in a working state. ;)

        I just set up some testenvironment in my lab and tested this with a failoverpool of wan and opt1, both set to dhcp and it works like a charm. Good job seth!

        Btw, lot's of people have demanded this feature and now that it is available only that few testers? Come on all you loadbalancing users out there, we need some feedback!  ::)

        Hello there guys. i use openbsd before as my loadbalance machine with my [3 WAN], and start using PFSENSE since previous releases. and I'm am very very proud of you guys .. I keep on testing and using it as a productin firewall in our school since last year of October 2006.

        now it working very great.

        hope to work squid transparent proxy and loadbalance in the future, and now I am in trouble testing loadbalancing and transparent proxy in my BOX.
        hope to get some advice and how to make it work.

        thanks very much and more power..

        btw. we are in Bacolod City Philippines.

        thanks alot. we Appreciate it so much..
