Run custom firewall rules when 4G modem reboots

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration
1

Hi,
I have a set of firewalls (iptables and IP route) rules that I want to execute every time the 4G modem connects. I put the rules in custom script however it doesn't work.
The router has two 4G modem interface and I want to load balance traffic on the interfaces.

Welcom Javad,

First things first:

  • We cant guess what you have for hardware/OpenWrt version/or script without your input.
  • You'll have to provide the details necessary for the members to assist
  • Start by running ssh into your OpenWrt device and execute the following command and then copy/paste it into a preformatted text box.

Once the community sees your version, someone may be interested in seeing more information on your script, network, firewall, route, installed packages, etc...

Interesting indeed.

OpenWrt toh lists this a snapshot target recent commit and the OEM page shows it has a custom OpenWrt OS named RutOS.

Will you confirm the links above?
Can you confirm you're on snapshot or otherwise?

OK: It's a RUTX12

Yes, However it is a RUTX12 model.

Use mwan3 for the load balancing and it also supports custom scripts when one uplink is connected.
