1. What is Network Failover?

Network Failover refers to a process by which the system automatically switches to a standby network connection in the event of a failure of the primary network connection. This ensures that network services remain available without interruption, maintaining business continuity and minimizing downtime.

2. Login:

Login using DNS server IP address ( For Ex = 192.168.10.1)

3. Dual SIM Network Failover:

3.1  Condition 1 :

Go to status=> interfaces, by default CWAN1_0 ( i.e SIM 1) status should be UP, based on the priority that has been set ( can be changeable).

Other way to check which SIM is currently active is click on

Status=> internet , In WAN status CWAN1_0 (i.e SIM 1) should be online/active.

3.2  Condition 2:

In case of SIM 1 failure , CWAN1_1 (i.e SIM 2) should get latched to the network.

Go to status=> interfaces , CWAN1_1 (i.e SIM2) should be UP.


Go to status=>internet, CWAN1_1 (SIM 2) should be online/active.

3.3  Condition 3:

If both SIM faces network failure, Wi-Fi WAN will act as backup.

  • Step 1: Click on settings=>network=>wifi settings

  •  Step 2: In general settings click on radio mode and from dropdown select Access point and Client.
  • Step 4: Go to status=> interfaces, Wi-Fi WAN should be UP.

4. Conclusion:

  • In conclusion, these are one of the many configurations to make for ensuring continuous network availability and minimizing downtime in the event of network failures.
