this is great, all other tutorials i have checked, set the metric 1 and 2, so the the status of wan only run 100% on the first wan. i was really confused. i think this is the right tutorial. thanks, i subscribe to your channel now. thanks
Hey, this video was made long time ago. On my recent video (OpenWRT 21), you can see the load-balancing works perfectly well ruclips.net/video/phkptBdGScY/видео.html
Van Tech Corner is probably the most complete OpenWRT tutorial found in RUclips. Could please do a tutorial on how to install Netdata for OpenWRT? Do u also maintain a Telegram group for discussing OpenWRT for beginners? Thanks for ur effort.
Hi, thanks for the comment. This video was the first OpenWRT tutorial on the channel and now there are a lot of tutorials, feel free to check it out. To install netdata, you just need to go to Luci - Software, Update the list and search and install netdata and that is. There is a FB group, you search for "Van Tech Corner & Friends".
Great video, mate! Could you, please, provide a brief explanation of the difference between load balancing (perfectly shown in this video), bandwidth aggregation (or link bonding) and Multi Path TCP? Much appreciated!
Hi, I think for the defination you can just check it out on Google. Here is a quick example: - Load Balancing: 5+5=5+5 (the connection/traffic is load-balanced across wan interfaces, according to setup - Bonding: 5+5=10 (not always like that). When it comes to combine throughput of several WAN interfaces, sometime it is called "load balancing" too. Check out the Mikrotik PCC. Another term which have more or less the same meaning is "link aggregation" - Multi Path TCP: Sorry I have no idea for now
Hi, do you think that the GLInet Beryl you have showed on some of your recent videos is powerful enough to do a load balance between a FTTC connection and a 4G connection with a smartphone via tethering USB ? I would like to give it a try soon.
Very good help my friend. I would like to know if you can do with 3 WAN ports? if so could you explain me which step further i should do? A hug and thank you very much.
You just need to setup the 3rd wan interface on Network-Interfaces. After that, duplicate the configuration for the 2nd wan interface on mwan3. Load Balancing with mwan is not easy for beginner, since you want to setup for 3 WANs, this is more than what a normal user need. My advice is to read the document to understand how it works first, after that configure on your own.
Hello van tech. I have a question please. I have a newifi router that have usb 3.0 and it has openwrt firmware then i eneabled the usb thetering for my 4g lte pocketwifi and i have another isp is there a possibility that i can combined these 2?
hi van, thank you so much for detailed tutorial. i have 3 wans active same load, i have followed all instructions in the video, on Loadbalancing MWAN Status - Detail shown "wan", "wan2", "wan3" (33%) balanced, but i checked on real-time graphs, only "wan" has more load than the other, also the traffic on "wan" more dominant. how did that happen? please help
Hi, can you share more detail about your WAN connections? Does it have the same throughput or different. Can you also take a screenshot of the /etc/config/mwan3 file?
I been trying to get my config fully running TY so much for this Video (Running a linksys WRT3200acm ) using main wan with 3 wireless interfaces in a client config
which physical interface to assign to the WAN6 interface. In the status, they (wan6 and wwan6) are first enabled and then disabled. please make a continuation of the video for Ipv6?
I decide it!!!))) ipv6 ping adress was not correct...!) I enter host name google.com and anther... and it all work!!!! Great thank you man from Russia 🇷🇺!!!))))
Hi, did u assign to the ip6 interface the same phy interface the ip4 ones, right? Also, mine config dont let me set the metric to the wanb or wanb6... Did u manage to ?
Bro..nk tanya. Kalau kat rumah sy ada streamyx 4mbps + 4mbps. Boleh pakai setup load balance ni ke untuk double speed..atau kena pakai device mcm mikrotik?
hi,can we use wirguard with this load balancing and merg both wan for using wireguardvpn client ? i tryed this but alwase pick one of this wans randomly and do not merg these wans together and my total banndwith is always is half,cuz using in wireguard only one wan, and loadbalancing is not working on it.if Mwan3 its not for this kind of use , do you know a solution for merging the dual wan and using for vpn like wireguard or ovpn ?
Yes, absolutely you can do that. However, please consider setting them as failover mode instead of load balance. I would advise to load balance the connections that has the same bandwidth.
Oh the original firmware of my router already supports failover i want to get maximum throughout. I have adsl 3mbps and 4G which the speeds vary from 10-80mbps. Maybe the exact term I’m looking for is bandwidth bonding. With the compromise of latency i can get addtional bandwidth.
Mwan3 uses Linux policy routing - it is IP based, not session based. Which means, your throughout is not bounded. If you really want this, I suggest the Mikrotik routers. You can give a try as long as the router has enough flash and RAM to the package.
great Tutorial! May I know how to configurate the policy based routing for my NAS? After changing to Dual Wan Load balancing, I cannot access my NAS externally. Thanks!!
Hey, sorry for the late response. You can configure policy based routing by following this guide openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/routing#policy-based_routing
Nice tutorial boss... Just have some questions, If I have 2 different ISP, and if 2 different download and upload, can I use this method? And if yes, the download and upload speed will be combine using load balance ? E.g ISP-1 have 10up/5down, ISP-2 have 5up/5down combine these two using load balance method will be 15up/10down Am I correct ?
Nope, mwan3 supports IP based (connection based) and only the connections will be load balanced, the link speed is not combined to gether (not session based). But still, you can setup load balance with 2 different link speed. For more detail, please see the mwan3 document where you can understand how it work (in the video description).
Hi,my case is one is a portable lte wifi router and the other is wired broadband plugging into the ethernet wan of my openwrt router...Can i bond (LTE Wifi + Wired Wan) both for failover or combine to increase bandwidth?
Yes you can. Just to create the interface name in mwan3 with the same interface name on Network - Interfaces. For example, for LTE wifi you will have an interface name "WWAN". These name is case sensitive so make sure you get it right. OpenWRT use linux routing for load balancing so the bandwidth will not bounded to gether, only the connection is load balanced. I would suggest you to go with failover mode instead of load balancing if you have Wire + LTE.
Yes this is correct, you can do this with either mwan3 (custom routing tab, need a fixed IP address) or Policy Routing (either IP or MAC address will work).
can you upload video about how to routing traffic game to specific wan, example; traffic social media to wana, traffic game like pubg, mobile legend route to wanb.
Hi, I don’t think we can do that with OpenWRT. However, you can route the traffic if you know their destination IP or IP range, by using either mwan3 custom routing tab or try vpn-policy-routing.
I am not really sure on this, but you can always give a try. After done with dual wan load balancing, you can install wiregoard client and see if it work. Else, you can assign the wireguard interfaces into mwan3 members instead of the WAN interfaces and see if the connection is load balanced.
Do I have to change anything on Globals? mine has the firewall mask, logging uncheck, update 5 seconds and routing table lookup says please choose, and have 1, 2 and 220
You need to create a new "Member" that only contains 1 inteface (which you want to configure the static route), create a Policy that only contains 1 "Member", and then go to Rule, add a new rule, you will need to fill in the source IP, destination IP, the protocol, etc and lastly on the "Policy assigned" select the "Policy" which has only 1 member that you have created. In the video description, there is the link to mwan3 document and if you want to do some advance configuration like this, please have a check, it will help you. Just leave a comment with the screenshot of your mwan3 configration if you need help. You can upload the images to pictr.com/upload
@@VanTechCorner I am confused to as what should be the dest and source IP in rules. I want that a machine(of which I have configured static IP) and has different servers running like plex, to use only one of the WAN(already created the policy).
Then you just need to fill in the source IP of the device and select the policy which has only 1 WAN interface and all the traffic from that IP will only go to the defined WAN interface.
I could see the traffic is much greater on WAN as if WANB was not being used to handle balancing for the different sites bandwidth. I have the same configuration only two 6Mb/s connections. on one computer I can download a test file and, on another computer, run a 4k YT video. This is more than enough to utilize all the bandwidth of both connections. It will utilize ONLY one connection at a time and I never get more than 6Mb/s on both devices COMBINED [3Mb/s + 3Mb/s] even though I have 12Mb/s combined capacity on both internets. Load balancer will only use on connection at a time with multiple devices connected. When one almost catches up it switches over to the other connection and keeps switching back and forth between the two connections never using both at the same time. I can be downloading Windows from Microsoft and my daughter turn on the TV to watch a Netflix movie and she gets the constant buffering circle. The load balancer refuses to use the second connection to give her a good internet experience which is the whole purpose of having load balancing with two WAN connections. What is the configuration solution that will allow me to use both internet connections with multiple devices connected to the load balancer requesting data?
Hello, you can take a look at the mwan3 docs and find your answer there. openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/multiwan/mwan3 This video was made long time ago. I have a new video for OpenWRT 21 where you can see the traffic flow to 2 WAN interfaces ruclips.net/video/phkptBdGScY/видео.html

Hi Van I'm having some issue here....just flashed my archer c6 to openwrt to use my 2 internet connections on it. i created wan connections as in video. 1st problem is that earlier when archer c6 was on default tplink os ppoe was working but now on same router with openwrt it is not working and always fails. leaving that aside on second WAN which I'm taking from another isp router's lan and feeding here. when this 2nd wan is active i can ping the websites and free DNS ip's but can't browse internet and no website opens. what all policies, port forwarding or routing do i need to set to make this work.
I have tried this but unfortunately I didn't get a great output; I'm using ver 22.xx.xx, whenever the other wan lost its connection you cannot connet to the internet anymore maybe because of the Policies that have configured. I also have tried to configure a Failover setup while the Load Balancing configuration is running because I was hoping this might be a fix but it wasn't.

It's advised to load balance when your lines have the same bandwidth. However if you configure it will still work.
I have tried this but unfortunately I didn't get a great output;
I'm using ver 22.xx.xx, whenever the other wan lost its connection you cannot connet to the internet anymore maybe because of the Policies that have configured.
I also have tried to configure a Failover setup while the Load Balancing configuration is running because I was hoping this might be a fix but it wasn't.
Did you try the tutorial for OpenWrt 21 (and onwards) ruclips.net/video/phkptBdGScY/видео.htmlsi=_hP905nBQz95B6G9
