        Create a Gateway Group with your two WANS, change your Lan's outbound internet traffic from default gateway to your new gateway group.  Setup squid in transparent mode add a custom options rule at the bottom with the following:-  tcp_outgoing_address 127.0.0.1

        Then goto outbound NAT and create a rule for each of your WANS as below

        WAN    127.0.0.0/8 * * * * * NO    WAN_1 Rule
        WAN2  127.0.0.0/8 * * * * * NO    WAN_2 Rule

        Now create a floating firewall rule as below

        TCP WAN_MAIN address * * 80 (HTTP) Loadbalance1 none   GW1andGW2
