WAN - Wide Area Network
WAN refers to your Wide Area Network connection, i.e. your router’s connection to your ISP and the Internet. Here
are the items within the WAN section:
WAN Interface, WAN Profile
and
ADSL Mode.
WAN Interface
WAN Connection-ADSL Mode
The default setting for Connection Mode is ADSL and the default Protocol is PPPoE.
Main Port: User can select either ADSL, 3G mode or Dual WAN.
Mode: Select the radio button if you want to enable the ADLS / 3G failover / failback function.
WAN1: Select the primary WAN Interface it should use. You may select ADSL or 3G.
WAN2: Select the secondary or failover WAN interface. i.e. If your primary connection fails, the secondary connection
will start up and connect to the internet automatically.
Time Schedule: Select the time schedule when failover should be active. Always on is the default value.
Keep Backup Interface Connected: Keeps the backup interface connected to allow seamless changeover when your
primary interface fails.
Connectivity Decision: Set how many times probing must fail in order to switch to the backup port.
Failover Probe Cycle: Set the duration for the Failover Probe Cycle to determine when the router will switch to the
backup connection (backup port) once the main connection (main port) fails.
Note: The time set is for each probe cycle, but the decision to change to backup port is determined by the
Probe Cycle duration multiplied by the connection Decision amount (e.g. From the image above it will be 12
seconds multiplied by 5 consecutive fails).
