Use Parallel Broadband
(Available in Gateway mode)
Parallel Broadband provides scalable Internet bandwidth with Load
Balancing and Fail-Over Redundancy.
Load Balancing is provided by balancing the aggregate bandwidth of
multiple broadband connections across the traffic demands of your
private network. With Parallel Broadband, if a particular broadband
connection fails, the access point will use the remaining functional
broadband connections, thus providing Fail-Over Redundancy.
Implementing Parallel Broadband requires the installation of 2 or more
access points in the network, each connected to separate broadband
Internet service account. As there is no restriction to the type of
broadband Internet they are connected to, be it cable or ADSL, you
may thus have one access point connected to cable Internet, and
another to an ADSL line. The access points have to be operating in
Gateway mode with Parallel Broadband and set to the same ESSID.
