I have tried it but it does not bring the W-WAN up.

Ok so i tried it again and it was great. Now the issue is that every 30 seconds i lose 3 packets every 30 seconds on the dot. I have played with all second on the interface PPP.
When failover to ppp happens.

Thank you for helping!

that could be down to the ethernet trying to recover and it brings the default route back in.

this all depends on your configuration and how quickly you want to get back to ethernet

how is ethernet failing

have you tried from ground up make sure cellular works

add ethernet
add secondery default route with weighting

then look at failure checking

once eth is put into OOS cellular should be used
