ER-7206 constantly using back-up WAN link instead of primary WAN link
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
My ER-7206 constantly switches the primary WAN connection to a cable modem (300mbits, 7ms latency) from my fiber WAN connection (1gbps, 2ms latency). No matter which ports I configure them on (SFP, WAN, WAN1/LAN, etc.) or how I configure the back-up link, I constantly find the connection using the cable modem instead of the Fiber line. This is pretty stupid and its driving me crazy. Is this a bug, a feature, by design???? How do I work around this?
Dear @ehubb
For troubleshooting, could you please share us the screenshot of your Load Balance/Link Backup and Online deteciton settings?
How you know the router is using backup WAN? Via router web interface?
Please make sure the Load Balance is Enable:
Please try change the online detection method for both of the primary WAN and backup WAN (under Online detection settings). Make it manually detection and ping 8.8.8.8
