v3.2.7 — Dual WAN fail-back no longer restarts the primary WAN in a loop
- Fail-back loop fixed (stock ASUS
wanduck, every model). In fail-back mode the primary line's
disconnect counter doubles as the fail-back counter while the backup line is active, and reaches
wandog_fb_count(default 4). Returning to the primary never reset it, so the primary became the
active line already at or abovewandog_maxfail(default 2). One disconnected check just after
fail-back, while the default route still pointed at the backup, switched back to the backup and
issuedrestart_wan_iffor the primary, dropping a PPPoE session that had just come up. The primary
recovered, failed back and the cycle repeated; unplugging the backup stopped it only because a
disconnected primary is not counted while the other line has no link. The counter is now reset on
fail-back. Reported on a GT-BE98 with PPPoE on the WAN port and a LAN-port WAN as backup.

Two flashable images: + AI Advisor (default) and Standard (noMCP, all AI components compiled out entirely). Flash the *_nand_squashfs.pkgtb via Administration > Firmware Upgrade.
This is a beta release. Its filename carries
_BETAand the router reports the same string on the dashboard and the About page, so you can always tell which channel a flashed image came from. Stable releases carry no marker.
