Device: Linksys WRT1900AC
LEDE version: LEDE Reboot 17.01.4 r3560-79f57e422d / LuCI lede-17.01 branch (git-17.315.61305-a9bddc4)

Trying to start mwan3 (configured correctly, I just restored an older config from OpenWrt 15, I'm upgrading from Openwrt to LEDE) does not  give any feedback, i.e.:

# mwan3 start
#

echoing $? gives nr. 4 (ip not found), in fact the 'ip' command is in /usr/sbin instead of /usr/bin where the mwan startup script expects it

Solution/patch: create symlink to /usr/sbin/ip in /usr/bin, i.e.:

# ln -s /usr/sbin/ip /usr/bin
