So I am looking to get 2 of these devices working together on failback when data caps are met on 1 device between both sims, to go to the 2nd device, and vise versa once the data reset happens. Basically I was asked to do the following config before sending off the devices to a customer. I am confused and still trying to learn.
Router 1: New device to configure to add into the 2nd router
- Configure Failover, such that SIM1 cuts off at 295GB and switches to SIM2.
- SIM2 will cut off at 295GB.
- Configure the billing cycle for each
- The connection will leave through LAN 1 of Router #1, and enter Router #2 in the WAN1 Port
Router 2: This is the router the customer has in place already, It will need a new update to start with WAN 1 Port. but primary wifi connection is this router.
- Configure Failover priority as
A. WAN1 Port
B. SIM1
C. SIM2 - Set the router to failover from WAN1 to SIM1 when the connection is lost.
- Set Router to failover from SIM1 to SIM2 when SIM one reaches 295GB.
- Set SIM2 to cut off when it reaches 295 GB
- Configure the billing cycle for each
- IMPORTANT Set Failback criteria to be when WAN1 restores connection.
I need some clarification if anyone has done this before, connecting 2 BR1 Mini together using 1 sim at a time until data is capped and the 2nd router being the router to provide all the data.
