General Discussion / [MultiWan]Clients notice poor and inconsistent connectivity when using MultiWan
« on: June 15, 2024, 07:46:54 am »
Problem Statement:
- MultiWan enabled using policy-based routing via firewall rule
- All Lan traffic other than DNS directed to gateway group
- Clients notice poor and inconsistent connectivity
- DNS resolution works 100% of time
- However, Apps and Browsers report timeout while loading the data
- To make things work I have to keep policy-based routing disabled or keep the 3 GWs in separate tier
- The setup worked on version 24.1.6
System details:
- Versions: OPNsense 24.1.8-amd64 FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p11 OpenSSL 3.0.13
- CPU type: AMD Athlon 200GE with Radeon Vega Graphics (2 cores, 4 threads)
