WAN Failover Backup

The WAN Failover Backup feature of the Smart Hub is designed to provide a backup 3G Internet connection in
case your primary connection should fail. To use this feature, you will need both an Ethernet WAN connection
(from an xDSL modem/ISDN/Satellite etc) and a 3G WAN connection.
To set up WAN failover on your Smart Hub, first tick "Enable automatic 3G backup", then fill in the fields that
appear. The Smart Hub's Internet failover settings can be viewed and configured by selecting the "WAN" menu
item under the "Internet Settings" tab in the Advanced View of the Management Console.
