How MultiWAN Works
MultiWAN features:
- auto-failover
- load balanced
- round-robin based on user-defined weights (see configuration section)
To give you an example of how multi-WAN works, imagine two 1 Mbit/s DSL lines with two users on the local network. With every new connection to a server on the Internet, the multi-WAN system alternates WAN interfaces. User A could be downloading a large file through WAN #1, while User B is making a voice-over-IP (VoIP) telephone call on WAN #2.
With some applications, the download speed for the multi-WAN system can use the full 2 Mbit/s available. For example, downloading a large file from a peer-to-peer network will use the bandwidth from both WAN connections simultaneously. This is possible since the peer-to-peer technology uses many different Internet “peers” for downloading. At the other end of the spectrum, consider the case of downloading a large file from a web site. In this case, only a single WAN connection is used — 1 Mbit/s maximum.
Bandwidth aggregation (combining multiple WAN interfaces to look like a single WAN interface) is not possible without help for your ISP since both ends of an Internet connection must be configured.

kalo misale aku ada web server dengan tingkat HITS rata-rata 370.000 per bulan, apakah perlu pake load balancing utk meringankan bebannya.? (sekedar informasi, bandwidth yg tak pake 1 Mbps dedicated 1:1)
