Hello,
I've an FWA515, and if I've enabled the Ethernet WAN functionality, is not possible to enable also the Cellular IP Passthrough (is missing the menu)

It's normal this?
It's not possible to configure the Cellular IP Passthrough meanwhile we use the ETHWAN functionality?

Also because, in this way, if I use the WAN Backup functionality and the WAN fails, the FWA auto-use the cellular connection; and in this case I would like to use the Cellular IP Passthrough funtionality.

    Correct Cellular IP Passthrough disables ETHWAN functionality same on my FWA510

    I did say

    [FWA510/515] - It's possible to execute a PPPoE over VLAN using the LAN/WAN port? — Zyxel Community

    like I said before

    You can have FLEX 500H on one port with PPPoE and another port for FWA515 and do the fail over on FLEX H which I think is best.

    When dealing with such complexly or what you want something to do its if it can do it and if it can't you think why and then if it can or if they will make it do it or if it just can't.

    Hi @Maverick87,

    Regarding your query, you may refer to our response in this post:

    Our final recommendation is the Dual-WAN setup on the USG FLEX 500H.

    Thank you, and we apologize for any inconvenience caused.

    Hi @Zyxel_Luna,

    I understand that the PPPoE Passthrough is deprecated, but Indo not why… it's is a good functionality…
