Failback Configuration (Advanced Mode Only)

This is used to configure failback, which is

the ability to go back to a higher priority

WAN interface if it regains connection to its

network.
Usage: Failback based on the amount of

data passed over time. Use of the active

connection must be below this threshold for

failback to occur. This will limit the

interruption that occurs during failback.

High (Rate: 80 KB/s. Time Period: 30

seconds.)

Normal (Rate: 20 KB/s. Time Period:

90 seconds.)

Low (Rate: 10 KB/s. Time Period: 240 seconds.)

Custom (Rate range: 1-100 KB/s. Time Period range: 10-300 seconds.)

Time: Failback only after a set period of time. (Default: 90 seconds. Range: 10-300 seconds.) This ensures that the

higher priority interface has remained online for a set period of time before it becomes active (in case the connection is

dropping in and out, for example).
Immediate: Failback immediately whenever a higher priority interface is plugged in or when there is a priority change.

Immediate failback returns you to the use of your preferred internet source more quickly which may have advantages

such as reducing the cost of a failover data plan, but it may cause more interruptions in your network than

Usage or Time

modes.
Disabled: Deactivate failback mode.
