Prefered source changed in 3.x ?

We have following config:
Two different subnets:

/ip address 
address=10.0.0.3/24 interface=wlan1 
address=192.168.1.3/27 interface=wlan1

Default gateway is from subnet 10.0/24 preferred source from other subnet 192.168.1.0/27:

/ip route dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=10.0.0.1 pref-src=192.168.1.3

This worked fine in 2.9.x but since 3.x source stays 10.3.
Any hints?

Are you using a Masq NAT rule? If so, then the preferred source will not affect the source IP in version 3.x as it would in version 2.x. If you havea MASQ NAT rule, change it to a SRC-NAT action and enter the 192.168.1.3 in the to-address property.

in Linux Kernel 2.6 (RouterOS 3.0) preferred source is used ONLY for locally generated traffic (output traffic)
but in Linux kernel v2.4 (RouterOS 2.9.x) was for all traffic

so as JJCinAZ said SRC-NAT will help
