Hello.

I need some assistance , hopefully someone can help me out.

I do network support for hotels. We install the wired/wireless equipment on the hotels.

We are having issues with our load balancing.

WAN 1 75 Mbps / 75 Mbps ETH1
WAN 2 30 Mbps / 30 Mbps ETH2
ETH 9 - Our Lan network


What is the proper command or script to load balance this connections? If anyone could help that would be great.

Load balance with PCC. In the wiki you have an example.

PCC is not very good with the un equal link, however you can add additional pcc rules to balance it at some extent.
try this.

Hello. I want to say thanks for all the replies back.. I am still having issues with it. I was able to see alot of traffic passing through but than after lets say the 40th guest tries to get online and ..

The way I have set it up is.


They connect to the PUBLIC wifi network. They have to agree to the TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Once they do that, they get online.

The guest is getting a valid IP address but can't get passed the tos page for some reason when I did the load balance. I removed the load balanced script, I had the guest try it again and he got online with no issues.

Eth1 - 75/75
Eth2 - 75/75 Both Connections now.

Eth 9 - Lan goes to my Netgear Switch ( gigabit switch)

My APs are connected to this switch as well.

I am not sure what I'm doing wrong. I am trying to get this to work well.

Can you post your mangle rules here for see what is wrong.

I don't have the script for the load balance right now. I removed it since I was having issues.

I'm sorry, that was for my other property. This is the property I need help with.

I have the secondary as Fail Over right now ( but I want to be as load balance isntead)

I don't really recommend PCC plus hotspot setup, but I guess why not just segment the network into two seperate LANs.
Say 70% of all users will be directed to WAN1 and the other 30% of users will be directed to WAN2. It would be more stable and reliable.

How would I segment the network into 2 separate LANs?

Two interface with local ip and put every with one wan in VRF.

This is what i have.
