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 ?
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... )
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.

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.
