2. Traffic-redirect route.
3. Dial-backup route.
For example, if the normal route has a metric of "1" and the traffic-redirect route has a metric of "2" and
dial-backup route has a metric of "3", then the normal route acts as the primary default route. If the normal
route fails to connect to the Internet, the Prestige tries the traffic-redirect route next. In the same manner,
the Prestige uses the dial-backup route if the traffic-redirect route also fails.
If you want the dial-backup route to take first priority over the traffic-redirect route or even the normal
route, all you need to do is set the dial-backup route’s metric to "1" and the others to "2" (or greater).
To configure the parameters for traffic redirect, enter 11 from the main menu to display Menu 11.1—
