Firewall/NAT

We’ve been using monowall for a year now and it rocks!

Our current setup is pretty simple… ADSL connection in our office using the WAN port, LAN port connected to our network. All TCP traffic is directed to our webserver, hosting our website. Monowall is also performing as our DHCP server and PPTP Server.. again working great.

The ADSL connection is very slow, so we have ordered a new Wireless connection From Terrago (1.5 MB dedicated). We need to add this new connection to our Monowall configuration so we can host our website using this connection. We will continue to use the ADSL connection for all Internal browsing/email/etc… as there are per month GB charges for the wireless connection.

I have tried two different approaches with no luck:

1)   Configured a second monowall box, setup similar to our first… Setup identical rules to direct all TCP traffic to the webserver. With this setup I can ping the new monowall box fine, I see traffic in the logs being allowed to the webserver, but no response in the browser….

2)   Added another NIC to our existing monowall, configured as OPT1 and setup rules to direct all TCP traffic to our webserver… No go. Also tried to bridge the OPT interface to both the lan and wan, with No luck.

Am I trying to do something that is not supported by Monowall? Any Ideas?
