Users
The Pro800turbo has duplicate Setup fields for both Modem (WAN) Ports on the Main
Setup screen as well as other interface screens.
The Installation instructions on the
following pages should be repeated for each Modem Port.
Before making additional settings, you should set your Modem Port
Modes and Alive
Indicator
right now for both Modem Ports. The Port numbers (1 and 2) correspond to
the same numbers printed on the front of the unit.
Click SAVE after setting both
.
�
Mode:
Leave on
Normal
if this port is connected to an Internet (or network)
connection and you wish to use this connection in the Bandwidth Binding
feature of the Pro800
turbo
or if it is the only connection
.
�
Select
Off
if there is no current Internet (or network) connection being made
with that port. You risk packet loss if you fail to do this.
�
Set to
Backup
if you wish to use this connection only as a fail-over backup in
case the other connection drops. his is ideal for slower connections.
If your Internet connection type is Dynamic DHCP or Static IP, the
Alive Indicator
must be set. The
Alive Indicator
is used by the Pro to determine whether that WAN
connection is functioning or not even if traffic is idle on the WAN (needed when
binding or for backup activation). Every 20 seconds, the unit pings the ISP’s gateway
and DNS to see if it’s connected.
ally this is fine except some ISPs prevent
pings to their gateways. Enter a www or IP into this field for an additional ping test
should the gateway not respond (don’t use the http:// prefix). est by pinging
manually first.
Not used for PPPoE.
