I've not been able to determine this but it seems like MWan3 might be resetting the WiFi radio. Scenario: I'm connected to the WiFi, the Mudi is connected to cellular via the modem, the modem loses signal, the wifi glitches. Senstive devices, specifically a DJI Pocket 3 disconnect when that happens. Anyway to resolve this so that when the modem loses signal, it doesn't touch the WiFi?
/etc/init.d/mwan3 stop . If that works out for you /etc/init.d/mwan3 disable so it won't bother you after the device reboots. /etc/init.d/mwan3 start if it doesn't make a difference.
Thank you, I think this confirms what I was guessing, but I thought that if I only had one connection set up, it wouldn't mess with anything.

If you only had one WAN uplink I'd definitely turn it off; it's just burning CPU cycles otherwise.
Without MWans3, how does it decide between WANs if you have more than one? I sometimes need to use the repeater option. I'm going to build a button (in my custom dashboard) that turns Mwan3 on and off for now.
I don't have a Mudi but there should be a plethora of options in the the GL GUI -> Network -> Multi-WAN for changing most of the behavior. Fully disabling it isn't one of them. Even if you toggle off 'Enable Internet Status Tracking' but don't /etc/init.d/mwan3 stop the process is still running in the background.
Hello,
What router model and firmware version is?
If possible, please PM us your issue syslog, about mwan3/kmwan reset the WiFi when the modem lost cellular signal.
Hi Bruce, the issue I'm describing happened weeks ago so the logs would not be of much help. I'm going to try things with tMwan3 disabled and see if that cures my issue. I will report back here.
