Thanks for the link. I've been looking for a definitive how-to for load
balancing. It appears to have more information than some of the other
documentation.
I'm not, however, actually using the OPT2 as a Wan link. I just want to
use it to act, basically, like a separate subnet on the network. All
the nodes that connect to that interface are on the same subnet as the
interface itself, they can all see each other in arp, and I can ping out
from both the pfsense box and the LAN interface and get a reply from the
other nodes on OPT2. The problem is that they can't see or ping or
connect to either the pfsense machine or to anything on the lan
interface. I added a rule to the firewall rules page for this interface
to allow all traffic into and out of the interface. And the firewall
logs show that connection attempts are accepted. But, none of the
remote nodes get responses to their traffic.

I run multi-wan at work and it absolutely works.

It seems we are both having the same basic issue. I am assuming that
you are
able to connect out via the same OPT2 interface you are trying to
connect in
thru. I wish I had more answer for you than I am having this trouble
too.
No one has responded to my emails. If I find the source of my
problem, I
will let you know.
