Hi.
I've got a 2820 linked to SKY BB, with a second (speedtouch) ADSL router on WAN2. Everything has been working fine; got load balance rules working great. However, I've been having problems with the connection on WAN2 - lots of disconnects and some glitch at the ISP is failing the authentication on around 75% of the reconnects. These are separate problems though which I'm pursuing with the ISP.
My issue here though is that I've got WAN2 monitored by pinging the upstream router; this seems to work nicely, and when the connection fails everything falls over to WAN1. BUT I can also no longer access the admin pages on the WAN2 router. My attempts to connect to it (http://192.168.1.254) are routed out through WAN1 and obviously don't connect to anything.
Is there a way around this? Can I connect to the WAN2 router (or anything on that subnet) whilst still handling automatic failover for external traffic?
Thanks in advance..
