Would EIGRP require coordination with other routers, though? They would have to be running EIGRP too? How about static routes with a floating static route? Make the satellite a floater with a high administrative distance so that it only gets used when the other option (802.11b) isn't available? (when in the field??) I may not have understood the problem, though. Never worked with a mobile router!? :-) Priscilla > > -----Original Message----- > From: Duncan Wallace [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 6:22 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Automatic cutover between wireless and satellite > internet > [7:72270] > > > Has anyone run into an scenario like this before. > I have a router that is mobile.
