      This seems rather odd, I have 2 WANs, with OPT1 set as my default gateway of a 92.31.* IP address, I've set a firewall rule to (for example) route anything to mxtoolbox.com over the WAN of 92.23.*

      I can see this is working by doing a tracert but its still showing the OPT1 IP Address on the actual webpage, is there a setting somewhere that I have missed?

      Thanks

        Just to follow up I figured it out.

        Because we are also using a transparent proxy and that uses the default gateway, the IP reported would always be that of the default gateway regardless of the firewall rules.
