Not really sure what you mean? Could you elaborate?

You where open a poll instead of a simple question! And what should we tell you about the real
way to solve your "problem"? Both ways are able to go for you but you should give us all more input
about the real devices you own and the number of the available Internet connections in your place or
network.- Set them up in the so called "bridge mode" and connect them acting as pure modems to the pfSense box
Likes the way explained in the next lines, but without the need of buying new equipment - Buy two modems such as the DrayTek Vigor 130 and connect them to two WAN ports of the pfSense box
The most common and easiest was to get that working well and without any kind of problems - Set them up as routers in front of the both WAN ports of the pfSense box
Double NAT and VPN will be much more difficult pending on the router settings - Install the routers from your ISPs and connect them to a small switch in front of the pfSense in separate VLANs
Would be able to realize with the routers and modems, if only one WAN port is available to use - Use both routers and activate the "Exposed Host" function to the ports that are connected to the pfSense´s WAN
Not really common, but if no money for new modems is there and the routers offering not the "bridge mode"
- Set them up in the so called "bridge mode" and connect them acting as pure modems to the pfSense box

I got two huawei b315.
Get the manual of this LTE router and then set each of them into the so called "bridge mode" that they are
acting as a pure modem if this will be able to realize it is the best on shortest way, but also the most common
one, you can walk through.How to use them both in pfsense?
I personally would try out to go the way with a proper load balancing and fail over configuration, but this can
be also different in your case based on the entire use case or what you want to reach or what is you entire goal.In normal you create then two gateway groups and do a load balance over this two WAN ports and modem in
front of them. Please answer some other questions here to get a better help;- What kind of hardware you are using?
- What kind of pfSense version is installed?
(32Bit or 64Bit and version number please) - What is the "line" speed of the both internet connections?
(such as 1 x 100 MBit/s + 1 x 50 MBit/s or perhaps something likes 2 x 100 MBit/s) - What is the connection art and wise of your Internet account?
Home or business? Static IP or dynamic one? PPPoE or another art?
Here is a small configuration thread that is explaining it really nice. But please read it slow and carefully.
