24.1 Production Series / Android USB tether interface (ue0) disconnects
« on: March 03, 2024, 08:39:34 pm »
Hey folks. I'm using a Pixel 5 I had laying around as a failover WAN via USB tethering. Everything works as it should but the ue0 interface disconnects and goes down on its own shortly after coming up (maybe 2 minutes). If I go to the interface in the WebUI and click save/apply without making any changes, it'll grab an IP address and come back up (same if I run dhclient on the interface from the shell). Has anyone else experienced this behavior? Maybe it's something on the android side (could it be lease time?) and I do plan to try a mobile hotspot device vs. the phone once received. It probably goes without saying but when the interface goes down, the associated gateway goes offline rendering my failover setup non-existent. NOTE: I have tried multiple usb cables.
