Can I set up multi-location VPN with failover WAN at both sites - with a mesh network twist
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Here's the high level: 2 houses in different states, A and B. House B is next to relatives in house C.
House A primary internet is Starlink with a fixed wireless ISP as a failover WAN for when Starlink is down, or at house B. TP-Link hardware is:
- ER605v2 Router
- TL-SG116 Switch
- TL-PoE160s PoE Injector (x3)
- EAP610 Access Point (x3)
House B only has Starlink when occupied. TP-Link hardware is:
- OC200 Controller
- ER605v2 Router
- TL-SG1210P Switch
- EAP600 Ultraslim Access Point (x2)
- EAP610 Outdoor Access Point
House C always has Starlink - it never leaves. Currently no additional hardware (just the Starlink dish and router)
What I would like to do is VPN the networks at house A and B so they act as one. I would like House A to continue to failover to the fixed wireless when the Starlink is not present. I think I already have a good grasp on how to do this.
Thanks for the response, @Clive_A. I posted in the business forum (even though i'm talking about houses) because that's the equipment I purchased, and it was not accessible in the drop-downs on the home forum. I hope that is ok.
Regarding the IPSec VPN failover, it looks like it is possible according to this documentation: https://www.tp-link.com/fi/support/faq/3575/
I guess what i'm really trying to ask is given this device configuration for locations B & C:
Can I configure this to be a "single" network that will use the Location B starlink WAN by default, but if not present/down failover to the Starlink WAN at location C?
