      Hi all, I have several WAN interfaces, 1x 150mb fiber symmetric, the other WAN connections only have 10mb upload. Is there a way I can have all my current rules and balancing but set all upload to go out the fiber?

        No. There is no way for rules to distinguish "upload" vs "download" all they see are connections, not which end of the connection is sending more traffic than the other. Plus each WAN has different IP addresses, so you can't have half a connection go out one IP address and the other half come back to a different IP address.
