I don't see it log creating the Routing Table default route for Table 200 or IP Rule for Target IP 1.1.1.1 for WAN1, it checks WAN1 for a null / 0.0.0.0 IP and then immediately goes to pinging it. Run these commands and verify that those prereqs are in place.
Code:
ip route show default table 200
ip rule listRanger802004

That's while WAN Failover script is running? It logged saying it created the IP Rule for 8.8.8.8 but I don't see it in there, it logged it successfully created it and didn't have an error. The script will delete the rules when it is terminated/killed.
Sorry, no. I run these commands after I uninstalled the script.
Now, I re-installed the latest beta and run these commands again, here is the output: ( I chose 9.9.9.9 as the ping target now for WAN1)

Ok try this, add this IP Rule manually and see if you can ping out of WAN1.
Code:
ip rule add from all iif lo to 9.9.9.9 lookup wan1 priority 100Ping using this command:
Code:
ping -I eth7 9.9.9.9Delete test rule:
Code:
ip rule del from all iif lo to 9.9.9.9 lookup wan1 priority 100Here is the output while the script was running:
Code:
admin@RT-AC86U-9AD0:/tmp/home/root# ip rule add from all iif lo to 9.9.9.9 lookup wan1 priority 100

Does it still ping after deleting the test rule?

That's strange, what is your PACKETSIZE, PINGCOUNT, and PINGTIMEOUT set to? If it isn't set PACKETSIZE to default of 56 and PINGCOUNT maybe 10?
EDIT: Actually, since you changed WAN1 Target IP from 1.1.1.1 to 9.9.9.9 is it starting to work properly?

Read my edit to that comment and that means it's default 56.
It's not working, regardless of which target IP adress I chose.
I did not change any defaults.
Another, maybe useful information. When I manually switch to WAN1, my router does not get a public WAN IP. I think the LTE USB stick is getting a public WAN IP and my router a local 192.168.x.x IP. Does this help maybe?

The Double NAT shouldn't be an issue but the MTU you need to make sure you have it specified for that WAN Interface.
I think the MTU is not the problem.
Another approach, I just switched my primary WAN to USB and secondary WAN to WAN.
And tried to install the latest beta:
I noticed 0.0.0.0 for WAN0.
Why is that?

Looks like it is staying in Cold State. Try issuing it a restart command.
Code:
service "restart_wan_if 0"Ranger802004

Maybe not for this particular issue but you will 100% have connection issues if you don't specify MTU for that interface.
OK, will do, but have a look at that:
As I said I switched to my LTE USB stick as my primary wan and my regular ISP to secondary. I tried to install the latest beta:
pastebin.com
The script says, I'm not connected to WAN0, but I am.

Yea that is normal, the router's firmware boots with WAN1 as Primary and uses failback to switch over....same thing my script does except it can't determine if your WAN0 is properly working because the router can't ping out of your USB Modem. Try adjusting PINGTIMEOUT to 10 and test please.OK, will do, but have a look at that:
