 Problems appear with the last update ou Er8411. Before all was good. Same issue.

Fix only with downgrade of Er8411 and Oc300 to be stable.

OP said this is in standalone. How did you test your device? What steps did you perform? I'd hear a more accurate description with a methodology to replicate the issue.

Or this could be a false alarm and not worth much attention because we cannot replicate it and don't have details.

In the previous replies, I used ER8411 V1.3.0 firmware and performed in the standalone, OP has already found out the difference between my test result and his setup.

Hi @EmuAGR

When failover is enabled, backup WAN is offline until the Online Detection fails to ping through primary and tells the router to switch over. It's been like this ever since the Omada router was released years ago.

 

  @Clive_A I've been testing this for a week and it seems the failover works as expected now, enabling load balancing indeed fixed the issue. I could also check that no traffic was sent to the backup WAN, except the VoIP calls, due to the static routes I added.

 

So I think this works as expected then, and marked your post as the solution. Thank you!
