      Hello guys!

      I've setup a dual WAN using gatewaygroups, everything works fine for the client pc's, but hte pFsense host uses only the default gateway.

      I see a default gateway at System->Routing->Gateways. Can I force the pFsense to use the gateway group instead of default one?

      Thanks in advance!

        No.  You have to policy route to the gateway group.

        If you think about it a minute, a gateway group being the "default gateway" is nonsensical.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!
