Ordered Fallback with Multi WAN?
Hi all!
I have Xfinity Fiber at home as my primary WAN. I've configured the fallback WAN to be a wifi connection to my Starlink with this Article.
Everything works as expected, so that's great.
However, I usually have my Starlink in a carry case for our travel, and I only take it out when Xfinity gives me notification they'll be doing service maintenance (it's not permanently installed). Is it possible to use Scripting or Docker to have an "ordered fallback" on our WAN?
For instance, I'd essentially like the following ordered fallback priority.
1) Wired -> XFinity in the WAN port
2) Wireless -> Starlink Wifi
3) Wireless -> Phone Tethering to my 5G Ultra Wideband phone.
4) Wireless -> Phone Tethering to my wife's 5G Ultra Wideband phone.
I know I can go into the app and change the wifi manually for the wireless, but I'd like to have this functionality automatic if possible to make it easier for my wife to activate fallback if I'm not home.

Todd Nine currently only two WANs are supported with either load balance or failover (with optional fallback).
I know having more than two WANs has been requested in the past. You can find discussions about it in the Feature requests section. There are currently no API for choosing which WAN and currently that probably wouldn't make much sense.
In Purple, Orange, and with Wi-SD you can switch which Wi-Fi WAN you connect to (though not via a script).
