I have the setup depicted above:
- Two ISPs. (WIFI disabled in both routers
- Intermediate router: provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
- The innermost router: provides Internet via wifi and ethernet to my home network.
- The intermediate router can provide status and info via webhooks
- I decided to implement a simple web app to consume the webhook calls and put it in a host located in the 192.168.3.0/24 subnet.
- I configured my app endpoint in the router configuration (of course specifying the 192.168.3.0/24
IP, let’s say http://192.168.3.67/draytek-wh-implementation)
- I configured a static route in the intermediate router so packets with dst IP 192.168.3.0/24 go through the right iface (I configured the gateway as 192.168.1.2 as well)
- Nothing was received by 192.168.3.67
- I suspect that home-grade routers like the one I have (Linksys EA9300) can do this kind of routing.
Am I right? Thank you so much for any help!
BTW: to make it work I had to settle for using port forwarding

This looks unnecessarily complex. Just out of curiosity why did you do things this way, rather than get a prosumer/small business router option like unifi, mikrotik or Pfsense?
