One possible solution I found on the forums - use TCP instead of UDP: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,10554.0.html Another solution I can think of is to put another pfSense box in between your dual WAN connections and your current pfSense box - all this one does is handle the dual WAN connection and failover. Seems overkill, but I doubt this issue will be solved before pfSense 2.0 - may not be solved there, maybe one of the devs can chime in. -Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
