Mike,
Item 1 is a FAQ. The answer is that pfSense only supports PPPoE on the
primary WAN interface. All other OPT interfaces treated as WANs must
use a device in front of them to negotiate the PPPoE connection and
provide a static IP address.
Load balancing is configured in the Load Balancing dialog inside the
pfSense webGUI. Consult the pfSense documentation on setting up
outbound load balancing.
A common mistake people make when configuring outbound load balancing is
that they neglect to set up static routes to the DNS servers belonging
to a particular WAN connection.

Hi,
I have been searching high and low but I cannot seem to find anywhere
a manual or instructions on how to setup multiple WAN ports only, no
DMZ, SMTP , HTTPS etc separation. All I want to do is correctly
balance my 5 DSL lines using PFsense 1.2RC4
My questions are as follows:
1. How can I setup multiple PPPoe sessions ? I can see the one WAN
port where it allows me to but on the option cards all I can
select is static and DHCP. If I use DHCP how do I set the
firewall to allow an internal IP address access to the router ?
2. How does the firewall work ? Where do I set load balancing rules
? on the LAN / on each WAN port or both ?
3. What else do I need to set ?
4. how would I set DNS if I have a separate DHCP server ?
I understand these may be basic questions but seem to be pulling my
hair out over this combination that works very intermittently.
Any feedback would gladly be appreciated !

Mike Lever
