2860Ln - restrict video streaming to LTE was created by xtractorfan
Just recently purchased a 2860Ln to add to my Ubiquiti Unifi setup.
I have 2 broadband connections:
1. WISP - local provider ~10Mbps, but unreliable (download speed 'slumps' in the evening as more people use it) via Ubiquiti NanoBeam connected into Vigor WAN2 - dynamic, shows as 192.168.9.225 in the Vigor Dashboard.
2. Vodafone 4G using 2860 LTE (again variable download speeds, generally 10 - 25Mbp) DHCP, shows as 10.216.123.28 in the Vigor Dashboard.

I've set 2860Ln LAN1 as 192.168.10.1/24 and enabled the DHCP server.
This connects to the USG WAN port, which subdivides to 2 nets 192.168.1.0/24 (goes to my neighbour across the valley via 1Km Wi-Fi link) and mine 192.168.2.0/24.
I have a CloudKey controller and a few Unifi AP's.

The 2860 is set to Load Balance, Auto Weight and session based and all seems to work well :D

Apart from when I access say NowTv or Amazon Video it invariably defaults to the WISP on WAN2 - which after 8pm is dire.....
I've tried several things in the Load-Balance/Route Policy settings without success.

I suppose I want to restrict my Roku (static IP 192.168.2.61) to just use the LTE WAN.
Any ideas folks?
Thanks

Use load balance routing policy for the roku ip. You can set a specific wan for the source ip. It should then ignore the load balancing for this ip.

OK, tried that, but using my laptop (192.168.2.206) instead of the Roku:



When I Diagnose/Analyze - I get this:



If I go to Amazon Prime video and watch a movie, checking on the Vigor Diagnostics > Traffic graph all the throughput is still WAN2 not LTE.
So I guess as the subnets are 'split' after the 2860 it doesn't recognise the source?.....
