          It will work though the first rule already matches all traffic. This one should usually be the last rule (balance all non above specified traffic). The other 2 pools then can be used in rules above this one to assign special traffic that can't be handled when hopping between IPs to only one link (like https for example) with failover option in case the preferred link dies. Your current setup will just loadbalance all traffic.

              What version are you using, the baseline 1.0.1 build does not work with loadbalancing.

              Any of the recent snaphot updates will work though.

              I am using:
              1.0.1-SNAPSHOT-02-27-2007
              built on Fri Mar 2 00:59:00 EST 2007

              and it works very well.

              You can get updates here:

                  Have youread the wiki guide http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Multi-Wan/Load-Balancing

                  Aldo note if you update your build and have already setup the load balancing pools, you must re set up the pools or it will not work - lots of other threads explain this.  It might be better to start from a clean build as you are already having problems.

                      @wasim081:

                      My Rules are
                                –----------------------------------------------------------------
                              Proto --- source --- port --- destination --- port --- Gateway
                              -------------------------------------------------------------------
                      1      any        Lansubnet  any            any        any    any                    (Default Rule)

                      2      any        Lansubnet  any            any        any    LoadBalancer pool

                      Wasim,
                      Are these are your LAN firewall rules? I assume yes.

                      You should only have the loadbalancer rule in place.

                      Your load balancer pools should look like this:
                      http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Image:LoadBalance.jpg
                      If this is all OK, what happens when you disconnect 1 router?
                      Can you access anything?
                      Does DNS name resolution still work?
                      Can you ping out to an IP address from the pfSense box?
                      Can you ping out to an IP address from the router that is still connected?

                          As Pootle said you only want rule 2

                                 Proto --- source --- port --- destination --- port --- Gateway
                                   -------------------------------------------------------------------
                          
                           2      any         Lansubnet   any             any         any     LoadBalancer pool 
                          
                          

                          Aisay agar aik WAN bund ho gaya, doosra chalta rahay ga, agar 'LoadBalancer' pool sahi hai to. Loadbalancer ka screenshot day do.
