In this video I show you guys how to setup a primary and backup connection on @TPLINKTECH #omada controller hardware. We also look at the settings and get an idea of what to expect when setting up these connections.

Hello, the ideal would be to try instead of disconnecting the cable, removing the fiber from the modem, to see what reaction the router has and if it notices the ISP cut-off.
thank you very much for your videos
Setup three different Companies for the DNS just in case one is non functional e.g. Cloudfllare, Googol, and Ćpendns. Gibson has a tool to test their performance first
Had Fiber for 10 years now, can't live without it. Well done video!
Omada needs full feature parity with standalone mode, full stop. Shocked that they didn't build this out of the gate. Guess I'll be sticking with Unifi for now.
I setup a Cisco SMB box years ago, I don't remember the model but it allowed you to bond 2 connections together plus fail over. They had DSL and a WISP and it handled the connections pretty well until another ISP became available up there.
I can't wait for fiber in my area.
Great video as always SPX. I wonder if this would work for dual routers for HA. If one router fails , it can failover to second router. I have two OPNSense routers, but only single WAN. So trying to figure if i can do same using this procedure.
If the router is managed by Omada it will use the configured DNS servers to detect if a WAN is online. However, in standalone one can configure any destination to ping in "Online Detection". Kind of annoying that Omada is less configurable than the actual router.
When i connect two wans on my er605 and oc300 and make a test speed it goes on the backup link and do know why. I have to unplugged from wan the cable to go on primary. And another problem with vlans it gives me 169. Ip…i have an eap610 and on wlans i put vlan id..it is not plugged in a management switch.
now bypass the provider's equipments with SFP XGS/GPON, fiber to the router!
Just wanna say I'd give my left nut to have 2 fiber providers at my address lol
Iāve been doing failover with ATT and Spectum for a while on the ER-605 and works great when Ethernet is unplugged like you did but if the provider themselves are having issues getting to internet but their services are up, itās random if it works or not. Iāve tried using ISP DNS and external DNS also hoping it would check past the internet provider but again random. Same experience with Omada software or native device software. Any other ideas to try?
Refresh screen is a setting on the controller (under Controller Settings). I think it defaults to 2 minutes but you could set it for 15 seconds, 1min, 2min, 5min or never refresh.
I got an Omada router for Christmas. It died within the first hour of owning it because I tried to do a firmware update.
You have both Google fiber and ATT fiber available? Where do you live?
First
Oh yeah !! Me first !!
