Internet Features
 Dual WAN ports
There are 2 WAN ports available for use on the Dual WAN VPN Firewall. They can function
for load-balancing and failover.
 Shared Broadband Internet Access
All LAN users can access the Internet through the Dual WAN VPN Firewall by sharing
two Broadband modems and connections.
 High-Performance multi ADSL Modem Support
The Dual WAN VPN Firewall has two WAN ports, allowing the connection of up to two
broadband modems at the same time.
This can provide a greater increase in bandwidth than is allowed by a single modem.
Flexible configuration allows each WAN port to use a different type of modem and connection.
Additionally, you can determine how the Internet traffic is shared between the 2 modems.
