The Connect IT Mini device is now configured to use the cellular modem WWAN, Modem, as its highest
priority WAN, and its Ethernet WAN, ETH, as its secondary WAN.

If a connection to a WAN interface is lost for any reason, the Connect IT Mini device will immediately
fail over to the next WAN or WWAN interface, based on WAN priority. See
