I have 2x 1Gbps WAN connections and trying to load balance them so that I can achieve 2Gbps nominal. My main router is a ubiquiti UDM-Pro and although it will load balance, it will not exceed the max speed of 1 port (Confirmed by months of support requests and testing). If at all possible, I would like to make the device as transparent as possible for things like Port forwarding, firewall rules, etc.

Did you configure the WANs to distributed and not failover? And did you set the distribution %?
