Load Balancing

[innosoftcebu]

---

I have two Internet Bandwidth provider, PLDT and Bayantel, I want to load balance them in a router, so that if the other provider is slow the traffic will shift autmatically to the next provider. What sort of router do I buy?

dude naa ku share naay mas barato nga setup, buy lang extra landcard og simple pud kini nga setup nga mura gyud lang ug regular router ang webgui para load balancing nimo.

sulayi ni bai.


mao ni aku na kita nga controls sa webgui wala pa gyud ku ka try but nindot ni tingali. save paka money ani bai.

This is what i use for my internet cafe D-Link DI-LB604 load balancing router - Router - Networking pldt and globe working together, and if one of them fails the other one takes over 100%. You can set load balancing on 50-50 or any percentage, mine is set at 40-60, 40% for globe and 60% for pldt. Good luck!

yes untangle has a load balancing and failover feature but it's not part of it's free/open source packages.

It's not that expensive anyway, that's what we're actually using. Plus, you get to use the other features of the app together with load balancing/wan failover in one system.

But yeah, buying a router is indeed cheaper... was just throwing this out there
