Dual WAN load balancing and watchdog?

bvalat

New Around Here
Hi, i just bought an asus RT-AC68U.
I bought it because of Dual Wan and Merlin cutom firmware.
I was using an tplink 1043ND with openwrt and mwan3. and ti was working great.
But this router has so little memory i had some crash because of low memory.

So here comes my question, does load balancing use a watchdog (ping to see if link is ok) for each wan?
Mwan3 works that way and was perfect for me , but my tests with the asus seems to show that the dual wan feature is "dumb". It load balance even a connection is down.
So is there a way to have a watchdog on each wan?
If not i'm willing to add a script to do so (ping and set up or down the wan).
Is there any command to force the routing only on one wan?
