Model: ER7206 (TL-ER7206)  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.0.1 Build 20230705 Rel.75930

Hello everyone, I'm currently struggling to configure a multi-wan link backup fail over rule for my tp-link omada ER7206 multi-wan router. We have pretty inconsistent services across our Fibre ISP providers. So we have 2 fibre ISPs and one Starlink connection for a total of 3 WAN interfaces. Our desired failover configuration would be to fail over each WAN interface sequentially. ie if WAN1 is offline, try WAN2, if WAN2 is offline, try WAN3. But the link back up configuration prevents this, for no good reason.

 

How then can i configure multi-wan failover?

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

It is doable. This link below should answer your question, see the policy routing part:
