Failover: Router can ping both gateways, but windows clients cant

RouterOS General
1

Dear All,

I just set up a router with Failover (2 WAN). If a link down happens or the gateway becomes unreachable, then its switches automatically to the next wan route (distance 1/distance 2).
Everything is working fine, can ping from RouterOS, but the windows clients cannot ping outside from the network until i disable and re enable the windows client’s interface.
Anybody saw this magic yet?

Thanks!

Not sure what you mean?
Probably best to post your config as well.

Hi, unfortunately i cannot post config now.

I made a fail over (ether1 - pppoe, ether2 static ip)
if i start ping from the router (winbox-terminal) it pings 8.8.8.8 fine. If i pull out ether1, still pings from router, but not from windows (NAT, masquarade set).
Another magic: Anydesk traffic works from the windows client pc too, but no ping and no network access… I’m not sure, this is a mikrotik issue.
