It sounds like you really need BGP 
ie - if you have 2 ISP's are you using their IP Addressing ? or have you gone 
to ARIN and grabbed your own assignment ?

---

I have a range of static IPs that I can use. I've taken three by ISP and 
implemented my multiwan solution.

---

In short - if the ISP supplies the ip addresses then if they are offline - 
(even if its by your unhooking the connection) you cannot route an ip range 
that belongs to 1 provider over another's unless they give you the authority 
via BGP to do so... ) 
---

But in this way, multiwan is effectively "not" supported, if I need bgp 
configuration...
I was thinking to test the OLSR, but as I read from You, it's not useful...

---

one other note - 
I grabbed a support contract from Chris - and gotta tell you - It is well worth 
its weight in Gold!
they can assist you w/ a BGP Setup in a heartbeat should you need it. 
---

I'll think about it, but I'm not sure that's the only way...
Thanks anyway!
Cheers,
Tebano.

Well, to be honest, basically I'm not sure, so I suppose my problem comes from 
this feature.
Here it's.

I've 2 isp with 2 different IP and routers.
So I've configured 2 pfsense in load balance and with carp between them 
(internal and external, so I always has a single IP to manage with routes and 
nats).
All works perfectly, if all ISP are working, or if I detach the WAN2-isp 
connection.

But if I try to detach the first one, no-one is able to connect to the external 
of pfsense;
the same pfsenses aren't able to connect to the internet.

I see (correctly!), into the "load balance" status that only half of monitored 
IP are reachble, but if I try to traceroute them, or something else, connection 
fails.

Like there was a rule that "link" only to default wan the outgoing packets, so 
if it fails, no-one is able to go, on neither of 2 pfsense!

Has anyone experienced my same trouble?
Thanks to all.
Cheers.
Tebano.

See all the ways you can stay connected to friends and family
