RouterOS General

Hello,
I can’t find what’s wrong with my config, only WAN1 shows active in /ip route

/ip firewall mangle

Only one of this can be active, the one with lower distance.
What you get is the normality.
Only one DEFAULT route with 0.0.0.0/0 can be active.

You can not balance the DEFAULT (no-mark) traffic.
The DEFAULT traffic can go out only from one route.

Rextended, thank you for prompt reply. Actually, today test showed me somewhat balanced traffic, though WAN1 busier then the other two.

By any chance would you happen to know how can I split my lan to two networks 192.168.10.0/24 and 192.168.20.0/24 with 20%/80% of total wan1-3 capacity

Probably because was late at night, but I can’t find it :frowning:
