Bonding two wireless links?

Thu Jul 17, 2014 9:10 am

Hello everybody,

can somebody help me to setup bonding for two parallel wireless links? I make a schema (in attachment) what I have.
I want to use both of the wireless links together. Now I have setup BGP (http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:BG ... interfaces), but it is not good, because if one wireless line is droped for a few seconds, there is no response even if the second line si operational. I need to have a quick failover between these two lines, so if one is dropped the second will take all the traffic.
Do you have any suggestion how to achieve that?

Thanks in advance!

there is another option that uses ospf. One link for upload, and the other one for download.
When one fails, all traffic goes through the remaining one.

I'm using it and works as expected. Also, the latency is much better when there is up/down traffic on the link than with only one link.
Beware of interference!

Works good, only one thing, on CCR we have set all ports as slaves with one gateway, so I cannot set cost to path ... I will try to change that too.
Thank you for answers!
