    SSH restart_wan not working

    I`ve tried several methods to reconnect WAN (4G USB stick) through SSH but none of them worked. Is there a way (command) to reconnect WAN without reboot the router itself? I would like to make an automated reconnect script but restart_wan doesn`t work. I only get disconnected by it.

    Some time ago I had a problem with my Windows server 2012 R2 downloads failing. My ISP of course blamed my equipment. I had an ASUS RT-AC878U. So I replaced it with an RT-AC88U.
