Multi Wan Problem

Hello! Recently i've installed Opnsense 16.1 instead of Kerio Control on my office. I cant't configure Multi Wan Balancing in OPNsence. I've created a Group of Gateways called "LoadBalancing" and added all my WAN gateways there and selected tier 1 for each of them. Then i've changed default LAN rule and selected my "LoadBalancing" group as gateway. After i've applied changes i couldn't  access my WAN gateways even can't ping them from LAN clients but i can access internet... In Kerio when i selected several WAN interfaces for balancing i could freely access every WAN network including gateways from my LAN clients but i can't make OPNsense behave such way.  :-\


I have a similar situation.

My T1 gateway operates fine, can reach every IP in that path to the public Internet address. My Satellite gateway works, but cannot ping the gateway of SSH to it until I reach a "far" network past the Satellite modem.

T1 is my primary connection - Low Latency, Low Bandwidth
SAT is my secondary Satellite connection - High Latency, High Bandwidth

Yes, I live in a rural area.

Physical Gateways:
T1GW
SATGW (default)

Gateway Groups:

WANgroup    T1GW;SATGW   Tier 1;Tier 5   T1 Gateway Group
SATgroup            T1GW;SATGW   Tier 5;Tier 1   SAT Gateway Group

Then I have ~ 16 LAN Firewall Rules that exclusively use the Gateway Groups.

Attached a sample config that was stripped of some sections for privacy reasons so likely will not load directly anymore, but captures relevant data, should our RockStar devs wish to take a peek.

Hi,
is a WAN perhaps a PPPOE Interface?

Take a look

Not in my case. Both WAN interfaces are simple Ethernet devices with static IP addresses.
