Multi-WAN very slow and often fails to respond to HTTP requests
-
Folks:
I have a multiwan set up with traffic shaper wizard implemented for a VOIP device. The number of WAN links are four [ (1) Airtel DSL, (2) BSNL DSL, (3) DHCP to a router with a 3G stick, and (4) PPP on another 3G Stick).
The crazy set up is because we desire for a uninterrupted Internet and DSL in India is very temperamental.
My problem is that our Internet still stops to work sporadically. To see what is going on, when I try to go to Webconfigurator, that also times out. We then go to SSH and use 11 to restart webconfigurator.
As soon as that is done automagically the PFSENSE web interface comes alive. And so does the internet access from any of the laptops.
I am using Pfsense 2.02, and any pointers would be helpful.
Best

what packages do you have installed? Something is hanging PHP, though that almost never impacts traffic through the system or anything but the web interface, certain packages could be impacted.
