Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1

I recently added a wired internet connection to my ER605 and made it my main WAN, leaving my cellular LTE modem as a backup.
 

I've set up the Link Backup so that If my main WAN fails, the LTE kicks in...every so often my internet speed seems to slow down and when I check the Online Detection it was that my main WAN is offline and I'm back on the cellular modem. However when I connect directly to the ISP modem, it seems to be working alright.

 

the only way I'm able to use my main WAN is if I select the Always Online mode but that defeats the purpose of having a failover backup.
 

Am I doing something wrong here?

@KeslerGo 

 

Is linked backup function enabled? (Maybe only enable the Load balancing.)

It is better to use the speedtest website to measure the slow speed.

 

 

Just striving to develop myself while helping others.

@Virgo yes i enabled it and the load balancing option also. It's works well when I'm on my computer which is connected via lan to the ER605. However I find the issue more prevalent when I'm on the wifi via Archer C64 which is also connected via LAN to the ER605. 

 

in anycase I've just upgraded both firmwares so i hope that solves any issues.

Try Online Detection--Manual, put in 8.8.8.8 as Ping and DNS Lookup address. It improves detection speed on my router, hope it also good for you.
