Model: ER7212PC  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1

My backup wan is metered and I'm allocated 2GB/month before i start getting charged for usage.   The 2 gb would be plenty if i could either exclude my guest network traffic from it, or if i could only allow access to certain websites.  Every method i've tried affects both wan connections.  How do i set this up so I don't get charged for usage that i do not need to be on the backup wan?

Hi @Psb4me 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

I think you can try this: use the link back up.

But link backup switches all the clients.

Then, you should also use Policy Routing to route all of your guests to the primary WAN which if it fails, stays no Internet.

 

We don't have a meter system so you should ask your ISP to stop providing Internet if the plan limit is reached.
