This only works if the network cable is disconnected, if that interface is still connected, this method does not work. thanks

[@TechieLAB]

Can you try check gateway-arp in route section where I use here ping. May be this will solve with interface issue. Let me know if it's working.

[@antonnelly]

You’re right. It worked exactly how you described with me too. The solution that I used was with an script implementation.

[@ElectronicBarta]

Nice and simple. Thanks for sharing.

[@hourashrezaei2660]

Hello, thank you for the video. I have set this up in the past and i just ran into an issue that i can not resolve. The first ISP went down but it did not switch to the failover. I have my distance and ping setting correct on both routes. Now when i unplug ethernet 1 off the router then it does switch to the fail over but when the ISP still is connected to ethernet 1 while getting timeouts it does not switch. I dont know if i am missing a configuration or not.

[@antonnelly]

It only works if you disconnect the Mikrotik interface. It doesn’t work if the link of the ISP gets down.

[@Martin-ot7xj]

Hi there, please make a tutorial video about how we can work with IDS/IPS, intrusion detection systems (IDS) and intrusion prevention systems (IPS), ON microtik please. Thnx

[@TechieLAB]

Thanks for your suggestion. Will try a video on it.

[@Martin-ot7xj]

@@TechieLAB I'm looking forward to your tutorial video

[@TechieLAB]

@@Martin-ot7xj Yeah new tutorial on its way. Hopefully today you will see one. :)

[@Alex-un5tl]

can there be only one timeout setup so 10 secs between the switch and not 20 secs?

[@TechieLAB]

They built the algorithm like this. You can change check gateway to arp. Or I have another video where I use netwatch to expedite the process. You can try that too. - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYnVnapsdq91ftU

[@drawdeebrads491]

manual failover?

[@nehat786]

Bhai please make a video of VPN how we can access our Mikrotik router outside the network with openvpn

[@TechieLAB]

Sure I will do. Soon I will hopefully upload VPN series.

[@nehat786]

Can you tell me how should I achieve that?

[@TechieLAB]

All you can do start reading about VPN on mikrotik wiki. They explain it nicely. I will put few videos how you can do it later.

[@peterroodt8966]

this is not auto failover. you need to unplug your wan1 port to go to wan2. Manual process here.

[@syasitv]

lolzz man this video is just time wasting,,, we need auto switching with no service switching we don't want to switch off the cable
