-**Mixed DualWAN (ethernet and WiFi)** 
  
-You have access to both Physical connectivity (for example, a wired ISP) and wireless connectivity (such as your generous neighbour). Here, you might want a Dual WAN configuration, where the ISP on the physical WAN port acts as your primary WAN, and where, say, wl0 might provide a backup connection. In this case, MultiWAN should be set with weight 1/0 (active/passive).+==== Scenario 3: Mixed Dual WAN (Ethernet and WiFi) ====

-**WiFi6 integration**+
  
-WiFi 6 is a superior technology not currently supported by FreshTomato due to driver/kernel restrictions. If you need to cover a large estate (for example, with repeaters), it is advised to buy external WiFi 6 mesh equipment to handle LAN WiFi connectivity only and let FreshTomato with WiFi disabled perform all gateway (to the Internet) operations. if you will require functions like Guest WLANs or any sort of LAN separation, make certain that the WiFi 6 mesh system you select supports VLANs.+ \\
