      I have a problem at my house and I am looking for a firewall that can switch from one internet connection to another automatically if the main internet connection fails. For example I have a fast internet connection that is not as reliable as I want so I also have Verizon Wireless mobile internet that I have set up to work with multiple computers. I just want to know if this feature exists in pfsense and if it does not I think it would an awesome addition to already great firewall.

      It would be nice to see a feature such as this in an open source firewall because as it appears to me the only ones that have this feature are corporate firewalls that cost $4000+ :(
