Use the router’s multi-WAN features to prefer shore Wi-Fi when it is trusted and usable, then fall back to cellular automatically. Present one stable onboard LAN or Wi-Fi network to the crew so their devices do not need to change connection every time the vessel moves.
Apply health checks and sensible failback delays because marina Wi-Fi may remain connected while providing poor internet. Isolate untrusted shore networks from onboard equipment, and manage data-heavy traffic when cellular is active. Confirm that the selected router supports the required Wi-Fi-as-WAN or external-WAN arrangement.
