Neat device. Recently I had to do a presentation at a location without wifi internet access so I looked to tethering my laptop to my mobile but I also wanted to use a Fritzbox router with an analogue telephone handset connected. I wanted to demonstrate using analogue handsets with SIP/VOIP. After a lot of trial and error I got my Nokia Android mobile to tether to the router using USB/Ethernet adapter (couldn't get wifi or BlueTooth to pair) and the handset would take an IP call. Cool! I also paired the Linux laptop with the mobile for internet access using BT (couldn't get wifi to pair). But when I connected the laptop to the router in order to configure the router then both router and laptop internet links to the mobile failed. I suspect the laptop thought the router was the path to the internet and the router thought the laptop was the path to the internet - just a theory. I think Linux enables routing overrides but could not see anything in the Fritzbox. In the end I ran out of time.

When enabled (toggle button on lower left in webfig, top left in winbox, Ctrl + X in terminal) it will revert any changes done during the time safe mode was enabled if the connection is lost. Once you reach the desired config you can disable safe mode and the changes will stay like normal. It has saved me at least a couple times from a reset and restore!

In the past, I've had a setup where I had a similar mini AP/router that could be an AP client or a AP. If you have a simple AP that can be a client, you can set that up and bridge it to the WAN2 of the UDM Pro. The UDM Pro will try to pick up the network from there in case of WAN1 failing *assuming you have your hotspot live*. Some variants of this, mainly depending on how/where you have this access point, would be to use VLANs to pass the AP via your regular cabling back to your POE switch, then from that VLAN (only) connect to your WAN2. If you have a few places where you do this from (say living room, bedroom), potentially you can do the hotspot from 2 places (not at the same time). Interesting setup and I like the option as a backup. I ended up getting rid of my setup as it was cheaper to contract the 'near the bottom' 2nd line here in the end.

Thanks for this guide Cameron. I found a little issue and am not sure if it's specific to my setup, my ISP or a bug, but I thought I'd share in case anyone following has similar. The guide worked for me, but what I found when testing is that when falling back to primary from backup I couldn't access any websites which I traced to DNS not working. If I tried an NSLOOKUP using my USG IP address, they would all fail which explains why as this is what is set as the DNS server in the DHCP leases. What I think was happening (although I've not proved it conclusively) is that when it went back to the primary internet connection (Virgin Media), it was still trying to use the DNS servers of the backup (EE). I'm wondering if EE block access to them if you are not on their network. To resolve, I set the DNS server of both primary and secondary internet connections to 1.1.1.1 and now it seems to be able to switch between connections seamlessly. I'm interested in whether you already used custom DNS or perhaps it is specific to Virgin/EE? I'm only using the USG-3P if it is a bug at the UI side.

Another great video and an Interesting solution to a somewhat common problem I would excercise caution though and double check with your provider what their policy on tethering is. I know that on "Three", you can only teather up to 12GB regardless of your data plan unless you're spesifically paying for a "Mobile Broadband" plan. As far as i know, some providers determine if you're Tethering based on the TTL of packets coming from your device when they hit their infrastructure, so you can sometimes get around this by adding 1 the default TTL for your OS.

When it comes to platforms such as routers, I deliberately try to use a range of them rather than tying myself down to one platform so that I can remain impartial. In the past I've used various different routers (MikroTik, PFSense, OPNSense, VyOS) then most recently I moved to a USG-Pro and now a UDM-Pro to get experience with a fully integrated UniFI environment. Sure the UniFi routers are much less flexible than something like PFSense but the simplicity of a single management interface to control literally everything is nice to have. I also use other platforms (including PFSense) extensively in other environments so it's nice to have another platform at home so that I can gain a range of experience. That said, I'm not necessarily tired to it and would be interested in trying out other platforms in the future, some of MikroTik's new products look interesting and now that they're finally beginning to introduce WiFi 6 products, I may take a look at them in the future. It ultimately just comes down to budget since I can't necessarily afford to replace all of my networking equipment every year!

This works for me as a manual backup but not as an automatic failover as none of my Android phones (all Pixels) seem to switch from WiFi to 4G unless I unlock them and manually try to browse the net. I'm thinking maybe the problem is since the UDM Pro doesn't activate a WAN interface until a few pings succeed, then perhaps a few pings isn't enough network activity to cause Android to switch to 4G. Maybe a a more aggressive ping script in RouterOS could work. If you have a dedicated phone you can just leave WiFi turned off but that's not what I want.

I've given up trying to get this to work as an automatic failover. Pixel phones stick pretty rigidly to a strong WiFi signal even if the internet is gone so it takes 5-20 minutes to failover unless I unlock the phone and start playing with it, in which case "only" 1-2 minutes is more typical. To get a quick failover I need to toggle a WiFi reconnect which will cause Android to do the checks required to achieve the "connected but no internet" status on WiFi. This can be done either on the phone itself or by forcing a WiFi reconnect from the UniFi controller. Tasker could achieve it but these days you need a rooted phone to play with WiFi settings in Tasker. All reliable solutions seem to require a dedicated phone with WiFi disabled or rooted for more control. Dual purposing your main daily driver phone and it's unlimited data as a seamless WAN2 failover seems to be impossible.

@@camerongray1515 I seem to have got it working now. The problem was Tasker (combined with sideloaded Tasker Settings) doesn't actually turn off WiFi if the hotspot is enabled so it has to be: hotspot off, WiFi off, WiFi on, hotspot on. This causes the phone to failover in 3-4 seconds. Another problem I ran into was the phone would keep flip flopping from 4G back to WiFi because it thought the internet was restored on the WiFi. Even in manual backup mode this would happen. I fixed this by creating a "Policy Based Route" to pin the phone to WAN1. I'm not sure why everybody isn't running into this issue, maybe my 4G is so weak my phones are in a hurry to go back to WiFi. All combined together, failover happens in about 10-15 seconds. Which is apparently as good as it gets with the UDM Pro failover ping/timeout settings. For comparison, BT's Hybrid Connect takes a few minutes to switch to 4G and then can take 20 minutes or a couple hours to switch back to the landline. Also a warning about using port 8 for WAN2. I tried to do this 2-3 weeks ago but it causes mayhem with VLANs if you try to loop it back through the network to a "Third-party Gateway". I was tearing my hair out until someone on Reddit said they couldn't get WAN through a VLAN to work until they reverted WAN2 to port 10. Then there's other reports about WAN on port 8 capping traffic through the UDM Pro to 100mbit. It sounds like reassigning ports is done with some buggy software hacks.

For me the mAP lite was an ideal option as my mobile data connection is relatively slow (poor signal) but if you're looking for better performance, one of the MikroTik models with 802.11ac WiFi and Gigabit ethernet would be a better option but would basically be configured in the same way as I did here.

In order to get this to work I had to first disable my phones Wifi, and THEN turn on the hotspot. Then the internet started flowing. Now it works great.

Great video as always, Cameron. The breadth and depth of your knowledge always amazes me! I have exactly the same use case and this looks like a great solution -- only problem is, the mAP Lite seems to be sold out (perhaps as a result of your video!). The mAP Lite is quite old now, I wonder if Mikrotik are readying a 5Ghz upgrade? On powering the mAP Lite via PoE from a Unifi switch, I have read that you can use a normal cable rather than a crossover if you choose passive PoE in the Unifi port settings rather than af/at. I see you've now removed the Cloud Key and are running Protect on the UDM Pro -- have you overcome your reservations about enabling remote access to all apps on the UDM from the Ubiquiti cloud, or have you found another way to use the Protect mobile app safely?

I think this chip shortage is impacting MikroTik hardware quite a bit, it's really just a case of shopping around until you can find one. As for the lack of CloudKey - unfortunately I noticed that the CloudKey was no longer working on its internal battery and on doing more research, people were finding that the internal batteries were beginning to swell up. I decided to retire the CloudKey as a precaution from a safety perspective and have since moved Protect onto the UDM. I can't say I'm happy about having Cloud Access enabled but it's just so I can get something working for now. Long term I'll probably take a look at non-UniFi CCTV options and move onto a separate NVR (not because of any real problems with Protect, just because I want to try different platforms)

Hi Cameron, i have a question :) Thanks for the tutorial! I have ordered the MikroTik (used you affiliate) and I need to get this thing running on a unifi 16 port Poe switch. I said something with VLAN. I don't want to plug the MikroTik directly into the UDM Pro because it has no PoE (don't have the SE Version). How I need to configure the VLAN to get it running. I plugged it into the poe switch. Do I only have to give the wan port on the UDM Pro and the port at the switch the same VLAN ID ? Thanks Mate!
@camerongray1515

You'd basically need to pick a pair of ports on the switch and configure them to be on the same VLAN as each other (with no other ports on that VLAN). You would then connect the MikroTik to one of those ports then run a cable from the other port to the WAN interface on the UDM. Essentially the switch ends up working like a PoE injector. Unfortunately the UDM doesn't allow you to use a VLAN on the LAN interface as a WAN interface, it needs to be physically connected to one of the WAN ports. The VLAN settings you are seeing under the WAN interface settings are only really for certain modems which require a VLAN tag to be set.

First of all, what a fantastic video/tutorial. 👏🏻 I also have a UniFi home network with a UDM Pro and finally managed to purchase a mAP lite for £29 (some suppliers are charging £100+). Anyways, I’ve followed along the steps but I have a few questions. I’ve managed to reconfigure the device so it connects to my phones hotspot and issue my laptop an IP address. ~25mb down in speed tests too so that’s great. My questions are related to IP addresses. Initially I accessed the mAP lite on 192.168.88.1. But during your video, your mAP lite issued your laptop an IP address 192.168.150.x Question 1: I’m assuming you changed the default local network IP address from 192.168.88.x to 192.168.150.x and I’ve not missed a step and that you skipped over that? Question 2: When you plugged your mAP lite into Port 8 on your UDM Pro, are you not getting an IP address issue? Does your UDM Pro not get an IP address in the range 192.168.150.x? You seem to still access your UDM Pro on 10.114.0.1. I can’t access my UDM Pro. Again am I missing something or have you skipped over some steps/info? UPDATE: I've figured out why I couldn't access my UDM Pro. All sorted now and Backup WAN is working perfectly.

Apologies for the delayed reply, your comment somehow got stuck in KZitem's spam filter! I'm still using the 192.168.88.0/24 subnet for the MikroTik, 192.168.150.0/24 appears to be the IP addresses that my phone is issuing to hotspot clients. When connected to the UDM Pro's WAN interface, the UDM will get an IP address issued by the MikroTik in the 192.168.88.0/24 subnet however this will just be an additional IP address on the secondary WAN interface, it won't replace any other IP addresses that the UDM has so you'd continue to access it on your LAN gateway address. You can then use the MikroTik's IP address (so by default 192.168.88.1) to access the MikroTik's web interface, even from behind your UDM

The switch only has an SFP port, not SFP+ so there would be no speed benefit to using a DAC cable.

The only reason I had the SFP to RJ45 module was just to keep all 24 ports on the switch free.

I can't see why not however it would depend on how your WAN interface and modem is configured. If your WAN interface just uses DHCP then you'd be able to just swap the devices over and it should work. However if your WAN interface uses either a static IP address or something like PPPoE then you'd need to change the configuration to swap over to the mAP then change it back again to use the modem. The other benefit of using the secondary WAN connection is that it will automatically swap back over to the main connection once it comes back so I won't end up using mobile data unnecessarily.

Essentially I have the same secondary WAN failover as you have on the UDM Pro but if I plug the Mikrotik mAP into one of those PoE switches it's not going to the secondary WAN port but rather belonging to the main subnet. If i were to plug another cable in from the PoE switch straight into the secondary WAN port on UXG Pro and setup a VLAN just for those 2 ports on that PoE switch would that do the trick?

No 5Ghz version of the mAP Lite yet. However, for this to to work over 5Ghz would require you to connect to the phone's hotspot at 5Ghz and I don't think this is possible in the EU on Android phones. The 5Ghz channel used by the phone is baked into Android and it uses 149 (US high band 3) so it is invisible in the EU. If you're using Android in the EU, this solution is limited to 2.4Ghz.

As for the original question, with MikroTIk your cheapest 5GHz option would be the hAP AC Lite however this only has 10/100 ethernet ports so if you need more than that then you'd be looking at the hAP AC^2. Since all MikroTik wireless products run RouterOS, you'd be able to do this with any of them so just make sure whichever device has the interfaces/form factor you like and you'll be good to go.

@@camerongray1515 I did some more testing on this. I think the variability of whether this works or not is down to whether the wireless client can see the mobile hotspot on channel 149. The phone definitely uses channel 149 when set to 5Ghz and this can't be changed. My laptop is able to see and connect to the phone on channel 149 but other wireless clients do not see this channel when doing a scan. The TP-Link travel router I have is an example so while it has ac wireless I can only use it on 2.4Ghz as a backup internet connection with the UDM Pro when using the stock firmware.

Easiest way I've done it if you're trying to connect a device to wifi that doesn't have wifi built in. I've used in a few case for wifi cameras that running cable to would've been expensive. This method gets rid of all firewall/NAT and everything. Just usable for connecting to an existing LAN behind an existing firewall/NAT. This is better with Mikrotik with more than one ethernet port and better wifi radio. Maybe a RB951 (2.4ghz only) or a CAP AC³ (2.4 and 5.8) MAKE SURE YOURE USING WINBOX BEFORE DOING THIS. NOT WEBFIG OR SSH. - once in the mikrotik go to system/reset configuration/check the "No Default Configuration"/click reset and choose yes. (This will remove ALL config including IP so make sure you're using winbox) - wait for mikrotik to come back in neighbors window and select the MAC address and sign in - System/Password and set a password. If you want to change username as well use System/Users. Just make sure you delete the default admin account if so. - System/Identity and give it a name (not necessary but good practice) - go to Bridge and on Bridge tab click add and then ok. You can name the Bridge something or leave named bridge1, but doesn't matter. - go to Bridge then ports tab and click add. On the interfaces drop down, choose all and click OK. - Go to Wireless and then security tab. Open default and add the wifi password of the network you're connecting to - go to Wireless, click Wireless tab and open the WLAN interface you see. If you have two, the first is typically 2.4 and second 5.8. Choose the one you want to use. Id right click and disable the other interface youre not going to use for this. Though you could set the other up as an AP and have ethernet and wifi. Basically a switch that connects over wifi and has wifi AP as well. If youre not using that, just disable the unused one. For Mode, I choose "station-pseudobridge" can't remember the differences between station, station-bridge and pseudobridge. Just what I use. Additionally, under ssid add the ssid of the existing wifi network. For security profile, choose the security profile you added the wifi password to (default or the one you added). Click ok. - go to dhcp client, click add, choose the bridge you created for the interface and hit ok. You should see it take an ip from the wifi you've connected it to. If you notice it's not staying connected or the mikrotik won't take an address on dhcp client, make sure you have the ssid and password correct. On winbox, you can click Settings in top left and disable "hide passwords". To make sure you didn't typo any. Also, make sure you're doing this to correct wifi interface depending on 2.4 and 5.8. If you need to know which is which for sure, can go to Wireless and choose the interface. Then go to Wireless tab and check the frequency drop down. Will have 2400 or 5800 frequencies. That will make the mikrotik act as a switch that connects over wifi. As mentioned, if you get dual band you can set up the other wifi interface manually and have a switch with wifi that's uplinked over wifi. That can be a bit technical though and can cause its own issues so If you don't need the extra wifi AP, disable it. Less uneeded RF noise. The beauty of this is if for when you don't want any NAT or firewall since you presumably have that on your main router. Anything you plug in to the mikrotik should get dhcp from the wifi network the mikrotik is connected to. Pretty handy for times you have device without wifi and for whatever reason can't run ethernet to it. Saved my but a few times. I've used it for a VoIP phone and Camera before and didn't notice any issues.
