Introduction

This article provides a guide on how to separate mobile data traffic by using first SIM card for LAN traffic and second SIM card for WLAN traffic. These configurations are specifically made for RUTX12.

Separating Mobile Data Traffic: Using First SIM Card For LAN Traffic and Second SIM Card for WLAN traffic

First you want to make sure that you have ADVANCED mode enabled. This will allow you to choose from a larger variety of settings.

Go to Network → VLAN
Go to VLAN → Port Based

Click Add
Leave VLAN ID as it is, for now, no need to change anything here
Go to Network → Interfaces
Under Add New Instance enter the name for your new LAN interface (we are going to use "lan2" for this example) and click Add

Under the General Settings tab, set Protocol to Static, and enter desired IPv4 parameters for your VLAN

Click on Setup DHCP Server to enable DHCP for your VLAN
Go to Physical Settings and click on Interface, select your VLAN interface (N.B. if your VLAN ID is 3, the name for your physical interface will be eth0.3 and so on)

Go to Network → Routing → Advanced Static Routes
Under the "Add New Instance" tab, enter the ID and name for your new Routing Table, for our use, we will need 2 Routing Tables
Create a routing table with these parameters: ID: 100, Name: first

Click Add
In the configuration window, under the Static IPV4 Routes tab, click Add
Enter these parameters: Interface: mob1s1a1, Target: 0.0.0.0, Netmask: 0.0.0.0

Leave the rest of the parameters on their default values and click Save & Apply
Create a second routing table with these parameters: ID: 200, Name: second

Click Add
In the configuration window, under the Static IPV4 Routes tab, click Add
Enter these parameters: Interface: mob2s1a1, Target: 0.0.0.0, Netmask: 0.0.0.0

Leave the rest of the parameters on their default values and click Save & Apply
Go to Network → Routing → Advanced Static Routes → Routing Rules For IPV4

Create 2 new rules with these parameters:

First Rule: Priority: 1, Incoming interface: lan, Lookup table: 100

Second Rule: Priority: 1, Incoming interface: lan2, Lookup table: 200

Go to Network → VLAN
Set Untagged on any LAN port you want next to VLAN ID: 3 (remove Untagged on a port next to VLAN ID: 1 accordingly)

Go to Network → Wireless
Select your desired access point and click Edit

Click on Network and select a LAN interface which is used by VLAN (lan2 in this example)

Click Save & Apply
