The menu can be used further to prioritize your WAN links. The highest priority link
which has been established successfully will become the so-called hotlink which holds
the default route for outgoing packets.
In case a link goes down, the system will automatically switch over to the next link in
the priority list. You can configure each link to be either established when the switch
occurs or permanently in order to minimize link downtime.
Parameter WAN Link Priorities
1st priority The primary link which will be used whenever possible.
2nd priority The first fallback link, it can be enabled permanently or
being dialed as soon as Link 1 goes down.
3rd priority The second fallback link, it can be enabled permanently or
being dialed as soon as Link 2 goes down.
4th priority The third fallback link, it can be enabled permanently or
being dialed as soon as Link 3 goes down.
Links are being triggered periodically and put to sleep in case it was not possible to
establish them within a certain amount of time. Hence it might happen that permanent
links will be dialed in background and replace links with lower priority again as soon as
they got established. In case of interfering links sharing the same resources (for instance
in dual-SIM operation) you may define a switch-back interval after which an active
hotlink is forced to go down in order to let the higher-prio link getting dialed again.
