Hi, I've been trying to get modem monitoring working for my 5G Max but have hit a limitation I wanted to raise as a feature request.
In a setup where the modem is connected to a WAN port, the only accessible IP is 192.0.0.1. SSH is not exposed on this interface, so direct polling returns Connection refused.
The alternative of connecting the 5G Max to a LAN port does give it a reachable LAN IP and SSH access, but removes it as a selectable WAN interface in UniFi's policy-based routing rules, which breaks per-device/per-VLAN WAN routing configurations. So currently there's no setup where both modem monitoring and policy-based routing work simultaneously. I have rules in place which route certain devices to the modem.
Since Gateway SSH is already working and the gateway has direct internal access to the U5G-Max, would it be possible to route modem stat queries through Gateway SSH rather than attempting a direct SSH connection to the modem?
