Thank you for doing the tutorial. I'll review it shortly. This was just my 
first sighting of it but that might have been due to a mailservercrash that 
took me offline for some days. The wiki steps actually do work given that you 
have static IPs at your gateways. It doesn't cover transforming dynamic ADSL to 
"fake" statics which might be a problem in some cases. However I know several 
people using it successfully with this "fake" static setup. This link might be 
helpful too: http://www.netlife.co.za/content/view/34/34/ though you don't need 
the advanced outbound NAT part (pfSense adds the needed outbound NATs behind 
the scenes if an interface has a gateway set). It also adds some routes behind 
the scenes to send out the monitoring IPs over the correct link. However, you 
might have to set some routes to your dns servers to make them work when one of 
the WANs fail. This is covered on the forum 
http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=756.msg5114#msg5114 .
