Spitz GL-X750 running 4.3.25, while troubleshooting US Verizon LTE issues (which I'll post separately) I notice the GUI, process list, and possibly the config file for mwan3 are inconsistent.
In one case, with mwan3 set to ignore the LTE modem, it still monitors the modem (and may be contributing to my connection issues). In the current case, WAN ethernet is configured for mwan3, the LTE interface should be ignored, but both are being monitored.

Desired behavior: If I disable monitoring of LTE (or any interface) in the GUI, then mwan3 should not monitor that interface.

While mwan3 still monitors wwan0 even when configured not to do so in the GUI, I think I've solved some of my trouble by configuring much less aggressive monitoring. This seems to be close enough to "assume wwan0 is always connected" which is what I wanted by disabling wwan0 in the GUI.
