Connection Manager

The router can establish an uplink via any modems plugged into a modem port. If there is more than one modem attached and the
primary connection fails, the router will automatically attempt to bring up a new link on another device. This feature is called failover. If
Load Balance is enabled, multiple WAN devices establish a link at the same time.
WAN Interfaces
This is a list of the available interfaces
used to access the Internet. You can
enable, stop, or start devices from this
section. By using the priority arrows (the
arrows in the boxes to the left—these
show if you have more than one available
interface), you can set the interface the
router uses by default and the order that
it allows failover.
Load Balance: If this is enabled, the router will use multiple WAN interfaces to increase the data transfer throughput by using any
connected WAN interface consecutively. Selecting Load Balance will automatically start the WAN interface and add it to the pool of
WAN interfaces to use for data transfer. Turning off Load Balance for an active WAN interface may require the user to restart a
current browsing session.
Enabled: Selected by default. Deselect to disable an interface.
Click on the small box at the top of the list to select/deselect all devices for either Load Balance or Enabled.
Click on a device in the list to reveal additional information about that device and to enable configuration options.
