Asus GT-BE98, WAN Notificatians

[deos]

Good day,
I have two ISP and use load balancing on the router.
Lately ive been having alot of issues with my main service provider and do not know when the line is down.

I use a software called Networx on my pc but it will not be able to identify if the ISP goes down.

My setup is, the following
Origianl software and not Merlin.
Fiber ONT device A and Fiber ONT device B connected directly to the router.
TP LINK TL-SG3428XPP-M2
7 x Asus BE35600 mesh routers


I guess if both ISP had routers in between then their might be software to monitor the network.

Asus routers are known for unreliable Dual WAN feature.

AiMesh with 8x routers sound like wrong hardware choice for the task.

So I have a complexed property

I have two sheds which are quite far away and my home has 3 levels.
All routers are connected via cat6 network cable.
I bought it on special and way cheaper than buying poe access points.

What load balancing router would you recommend. TP link load balance routers do not have email notifications

What load balancing router would you recommend.

Ubiquiti gateways have working multi-WAN and whatever you like notifications on acceptable price with GbE, 2.5GbE and 10GbE options. This AiMesh setup was perhaps cheaper, but now you have 8x routers generating a lot of noise on the same channels and perhaps on full power. Fine tuning of this system is practically impossible and the nodes seeing each other wait for their turn to send/receive data.

TP link load balance routers do not have email notifications

They have working multi-WAN though.

You can try using GNuton firmware (a version of asuswrt-merlin) and you can try installing Dual-WAN script:

Thread 'WAN Failover v2.2.0 Release' https://www.snbforums.com/threads/wan-failover-v2-2-0-release.93799/

The script fixes this issue.
