asked on Linux failover escript not working with new Netgear sprint card
Dear Experts,
We have these Debian Linux "red-box" devices that VPN to a location 24/7.
This are dedicated Linux VPN devices that have a USB modem as back up.
Product information:
http://www.reliantsolutions.com/redbox-platform/
We had it working fine until the new USB failover modem (with different ISP) had to be change...
http://www.netgear.com/service-providers/products/mobile/usb-modems/341u.aspx
We got the driver to work but not the fail-over script. Internet access yes VPN no.
The idea is to keep the VPN tunnel going if the main ISP goes down (logix, AT&T, COX, etc) this USB modem takes over in a couple of minutes or so keeping the VPN tunnel.
Attached is the script for your review
For any help many thanks!

No. The device is the same the only thing that change is the USB device
Have you modified the "DEBUG" variable to see detail about what's happening?
What do you have in /var/log/failover-wwan.log

I checked and it looks fine...
We think is a kernel issue.
We are going to upgrade the kernel 3.5

As it turned out we did upgrade to 4.1.
Very good, I just read this. The Kernel upgrade did it and some modifications in the scripts.
Was a lot of work

The script looks for eth0 and ppp0.
