Hello
I look after two sites in a relatively remote area, they are about 1km apart. Both sites have relatively high speed FTTP links (c. 300Mbps). It is possible to install a wireless bridge between the sites. It would be beneficial to install a cellular WAN, because cars frequently take the telegraph poles out causing weeks of outage! However, only one site (site A) has cellular coverage.
Assuming that both site A and site B have OPNsense units, that a wireless bridge link (WBL) is available, say using a TP-Link EAP215, and a cellular WAN at site A.
Is the following possible with OPNsense?
• Allowing the sub nets at site A and site B to communicate using the WBL
• Allowing site B to use the cellular WAN in case of FTTP failure at site B
If so, could you give me a pointer as to the features / configuration to explore?
Is there an easier way, perhaps I have missed something obvious?
Thank you in advance.
