Hello, I've got a multiWAN set up, with load balancing working just fine. However, I'm trying to push all bit torrent traffic(all our torrent clients will be set to one particular port) out of WAN1, and have torrent traffic never go out WAN2.

I set up a multiWAN rule for it, yet torrent traffic continues to pass through both WANs

I also tried setting up a traffic shaper rule to give bit torrent only 1kbps on WAN2 - essentially blocking it on that WAN, but this just made bit torrent blocked on both WANs all together.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this configured properly?

Hi,

l7filter only work for QoS and not for load balancing because is not a 100% accurate method. My recommendation is to send everything by your default gateway (the one you want to be used for torrent) and specific stuff that you can identify by port (HTTP 80, HTTPS 443 and so son) via the other gateway.

Regards,

Or you can make a firewall rule to accomplish this...
