Speedfusion is not behaving the way I would expect. I have 5 connections available, 2x WAN, 2X Wifi as WAN and Cellular. In my speedfusion setup, I want the 2x WAN connections set as Priority 1, the 2 Wifi as WAN as Priority 2, and Cellular as Priority 3. My goal is for WAN smoothing to be working optimally, which requires 2 active connections. However, if only one of my Priority 1 connections goes down, it does not activate one of the Priority 2 connections, so WAN smoothing is not occurring. I don’t simply want to add more than 2 connections to be Priority 1 and incur bandwidth overhead unnecessarily. Help is appreciated!
Its not designed to work that way. There are no WAN groups, just priority groups.
What are the WAN connections?
I would usually suggest you put all but cellular WANs in priority 1 (dashboard and speedfusion profile) then set latency cut off to exclude the 2 x wifi links based on latency. Cellular WANs can be in P2 in the profile, P1 on the dashboard.
Primary WAN is Starlink High Performance. Secondary WAN is T-Mobile Home Internet. I then will use Wifi as WAN in various RV parks. Current spot is a really solid Fiber network, but most of the time these connections are unreliable. Lastly is true Cellular with an ATT plan I activate as needed.
Most of the time, I want Starlkink and TMobile to be in Priority 1. If one of those drops, I’d like it to pick up a secondary connection to keep WAN Smoothing working, but sounds like I can’t really accomplish that?
Not really no. I can’t think of a tidy automated way to achieve this.
Could he use sub tunnels to have two different sets of wan smoothing?
Yes, but there is no obvious way to trigger an outbound policy change when a single WAN fails in one subtunnel to then redirect traffic via the 2nd subtunnel.
We could script it I suppose. Monitor the P1 wans - if one is in failed state, change the outbound policy order so the 2nd subtunnel is used. But that will get messy quick.
Better to put all the connections in a single tunnel profile, then manually control which WANs are used by dragging and dropping them into and out of priority levels on the dashboard.
@Stevew/ peplink Any thoughts on how to achieve the desired results?
