Load Balancing / Route Selection not recovering ...

RouterOS General
1

Hi, I set up some routing rules to route my voip traffic through 2 ADSL lines. Everything works fine, until something happens with the connection. If there is something wrong with the PPPoE-client (ADSL) connection the traffic goes again to the default route (OK), but as soon as the ADSL connection comes back live, the voip traffic gets stuck and does not go through the ADSL line nor the default route. Can somebody please take a look in my config and tell me what I am doing wrong, or how I can improve to make it recover smooth ?

Thanks guys,

its most likely the registration on the SIP server remembering your previous IP. Ive ran into this many times. Next time it happens look at the SIP packets and you will probably see the SIP server replying to the old IP address… a reregistration doesnt seem to override the previous one like you think it would.

Thanks my friend for the reply,

But what is strange is that if that is the case, it should not work when the ADSL line stops working … right ?

ADSL Line UP → phone registered through ADSL line
ADSL Line DOWN → phone registered through Wireless link
ADSL Line UP → phone unregistered

Did you find a solution in your case ? In my case, I have to reboot the router … rebooting it, everything goes back to normal … That’s why I think something gets stuck in the router.
