      No matter what I do I can't seem to get any traffic to go out over the second WAN connection.  What I have are two T1 lines with static IPs.  Whichever I configure as WAN works.  But no matter what I do I can't seem to get any traffic to go out over the second connection.  As a result I can't setup failover or load-balancing.  What could I have missed here?  What can I check?  I can ping out over the WAN connection, but not over WAN2(Opt2).  But if I switch the cables and change all the info between WAN and WAN2 I can ping out over the WAN (which was WAN2) so I know that both T1s are working.  I am lost.  Also I have lost the ability to SSH to the box.  It was working.  Nothing has changed, but no SSH.  Also what rule do I need to setup to allow me to ping the box and get a response?

        Are your 2 WAN's in the same subnet?
        If yes it wont work.

        Did you take a look at the dualwan troubleshooting in the docs?

          Can you provide a link to the troubleshooting?  I can't remember if I have looked at it.  Can you provide a link to the troubleshooting?  I don't see it in the tutorials section or the wiki.
