Is there any plans from mikrotik to add remote ping in ip routes.
For failover using adsl modems.
As some ISP doesnt allow us to use our mikrotik boards to dial pppoe to them, they preconfigure the modems and send them to us.
you can use “Check gateway” in route to see whether Modem is reachable or not.
if want to see whether the ISP is reachable you can use netwatch. it will do what ever you put in the script field. change DG, enable or disable route and etc.
Sade thanks for replying, Can you maybe give me the simple script te enable and disable the route?
I am useless in scripts
thanks
It’s useful to you

And this http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/ECMP_Failover_Script >> need to change something
I am using PCC with 3 ADSL modems that is dialing the internet, so whenever 1 goes down, the internet goes Haywire, until I disable that Ethernet port. So How do i implement that scipt to check over 3 Gateways?
I tried that, with no luck, as Internet is extremely slow after I set it up
it has nothing to do with the speed of the Internet
I know, But since I set It up with that Remote Failover, When a Connection gets opened on 1 of my adsl lines, it forces it to a different line, and therefore take alot longer to open a site
‘forces’?.. ‘different line’?.. sounds crazy… it does not change routing setup in normal conditions, so it should work as before the changes
