      Hi,

      I have a the follow ISP setups

      1. Cable
      2. DSL

      I want WAN = Cable and OPT1 = DSL

      When I go to configure OPT1 I cannot access the PPPOE setup.

      Please advise…

      Tim

        Use WAN as PPPOE and OPT1 as cable.
        PPPOE on something else than WAN is not yet availlable.

        We do what we must, because we can.

          Wow really?  :(

          I waited almost a year already.

          I didn't want the DSL to be the primary WAN by default.
          Only to be used for failover, or for specific traffic. Guess I
          will have to wait.

          Ok thanks…

            Go for it! I bet patches are accepted…

            Sorry, brain f***.
            Clients only have a default gateway, not … I was way off track!

              You dont need to have WAN as default.
              Default is what you define as default in the firewall rules on LAN-tab.
              Just set your OPT1 as default…

                Exactly, the WAN is only the default and not easily changed for traffic originating from the firewall itself (which in a normal policy routing configuration isn't much - DNS forwarder if you use it, and NTP if you use servers on the Internet).
