Hello,
Currently “Route Check Gateway” based on simply ping.
My suggestion: add check gateway based on link quality (ping jitter and packet loss) for given period of time.

I always need to set my 17ghz microwave links to a fixed modulation otherwise ospf wont switch over when it starts raining.
Links stay connected but they run at 700ms+ and drops a ton of packets
This code will let you write check gateway code based on any scripting result:

+1. I agree it would be nice for it to be built in to RouterOS but they take their time adding features like this.
