It seems the only two that will do both is the CyberGuard/SnapGear and the Xterasys. Our VPN needs are just a few users so we don't need a higher end device so I gave the Xterasys a go. The CyberGuard would meet our needs well from playing with the online emulator they have.

Xterasys seems to be a generic OEM company and the same router is sold as the Ovislink MH-200. It is built using waveplus.com's RISC OEM chip set. It is as generic as you get, no company name in the manual, the GUI or the box and Xterasys's name is just a sticker on the box. So any future support or firmware upgrades you may never get but for $140 the box is very impressive in features for a small office solution and it works well. The bandwidth sharing was much better than what we experienced with the Linksys RV082. There are some nice bandwidth analysis features.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Known-Dual-Wan-Routers-for-Those-of-you-lookin-11670463 Sat, 23 Oct 2004 19:46:28 EDT Re: Known Dual Wan Routers for Those of you lookin http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Known-Dual-Wan-Routers-for-Those-of-you-lookin-11622521 said by LoneRegister:

Kevin: RV042 routing problems
Kevin: Hi.
Edward Javier: Welcome to Linksys Technical Online Chat! One moment please, while I review your information.
Edward Javier: what do you mean by routing problems?
Kevin: let me give you the background.
Kevin: WAN1 = Cable modem 512Kbup/5MBps down
Kevin: WAN2 = T1 1.5up/1.5down
Kevin: DHCP off
Kevin: 3 static routes set.
Kevin: 2 of which specifically state for a 255.255.255.0 route to WAN2
Kevin: the other is 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 via WAN1
Kevin: yet - the router randomly chooses between WAN1 and WAN2
Kevin: Load balance = ON
Kevin: Auto Balance = ON
Edward Javier: One moment please, while I review that information.
Kevin: ok
Edward Javier: One moment please...
Kevin: still waiting.. it's a tough question.
Edward Javier: ok.. basically your refering to static routing, linksys technical support do not supports static routing configuration.. but it is confirmed to work w/ our router..
Edward Javier: what you could do is send an email at support@linksys.com..
Kevin: ? You have static routing setup on the router, but you don't support it?
Edward Javier: they are the ones who could provide you documentations on what you could do w/ regards to the static routing option in our router..
Kevin: they = support@linksys.com
Edward Javier: yes, that is true... we have a static routing tab in our router..

You can set it up for Auto Load balancing, or "manual" load balancing. However, what it does in manual mode is detects the speed of the primary connection. Then, when a certain percentage of that speed is exceeded, it will switch completely over to the 2nd connection. All traffic goes on that connection from that point on, until the "switchover" time expires.

So - no load balancing as we know it. Just switching over to a 2nd connection under certain circumstances.

Auto Load balancing appears to switch between the two randomly. Which is kinda ok and kinda not ok.

In my situation, I want the network to go over connection 1 always, except for when I talk to IP range X and Y.

No problem I think - I'll setup some static routes. Well - static routes ONLY work (again kinda) when DHCP is turned OFF.

And then I find that the router get's stuck sometimes on one or the other WAN port. Randomly it appears.

Even though I have static routing input for what I want - it appears to ignore that at times.

So - does it work ? Kinda.

My favorite situation is when I am starting a download - it get's about 300k of a portion of it, and then hangs the download. I think because it wants to switch the download in the middle to the other WAN. This happens randomly - and you can get the download running by attempting it several times. But it's a pain in the butt.

I think that, in a sense, the prices paid for the products of early entries in the router race are a bargain, if the products work.

I'm not sure what the point of the thread you referenced is in the context of the present. Did Xincom over state their routers' future capability? Probably. Did they mis-understand the limitations of routers re aggregation? Maybe. Is a $200 Xincom capable of doing what some dual-WAN users need well enough to not have to pay much bigger bucks for a Zyxel? Most likely. Is the Xincom up-time reliability better than my Hawking? I would hope so. Does one get better service at the $1k price point than the $0.2k price point? You betcha. Will a 502 do what I need? That may require my buying one to find out.

Ip based port based interface routing is useless if you want to run a sever and route all outgoing mail traffic to one interface. Again the xincom 502 goes a step further and allows protocol binding with any ports.

'"The bad news: There is no way to route SMTP traffic to one WAN link. "'

If this is not possible on the latest Hawking router, they took a step backwards. On the FR24, one can establish a mode of sharing where traffic can be routed by IP and port. Unfortunately, in that mode there is no percentage sharing or threshold sharing. What is wanted is both load balancing and tailored connections, e.g., SMTP.

As for the Xincom 502: I looked at their user manual yesterday. For a router that lists for $300., one would expect a manual larger than 47 pages. The Zexel Z70 has a 600 page manual, so based on cost Xincom should provide about 200 pages. :) More seriously, Xincom should eliminate ambiguity by better explaining some menus, showing all subfunction menus with examples, and cleaning up broken English in the latter portion of the text.

Zexel seems to have taken the position that this is complicated stuff, so we'll try to explain it as well as we can, while Xincom seems to have taken the position that this is complicated stuff, so it is best left to a networking guru who can devine what we intended by our menus.

I take it that you have upgraded to the latest firmware.
I am guessing that if your upload was trully 2k that your download would suffer greatly. These are some things I would try.

1. swap wan ports.
2. change balancing rules and try all three types.(session works best for me)
3. See what happens if the dsl is uploading at the same time.
4. Put the cable modem behind a router and then give the xincom a static ip.

My guess is that number 2 might be your best bet if you have not tried it. Might be that packet based and byte based are not working well. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Known-Dual-Wan-Routers-for-Those-of-you-looking-11609551 Sun, 17 Oct 2004 04:29:57 EDT Re: Linksys RV042 lacks SMTP Binding http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-RV042-lacks-SMTP-Binding-11609506 said by Kirby Smith:

Why should I expect the Nexland Pro 800 Turbo to keep working under conditions where the Nexland ISB SOHO would break?


The nexland is old and I would not rec it to any one at that price, but my exp with the hawking is that it makes for a poor paper weight.

I have had the nexland working for a few years, but so far my best exp has been with the xincom 502. It has been rock solid with some really powerful features. You can tell that these guys are serious about making dual wan routers.

They also make high end routers that lends exp to the lower end soho stuff. My exp is limited to three routers, but I have combed through many manuals and you can tell by the features offered in the firmware who has a clue or not.

Features like ip and interface routing
Smtp binding (Xincom goes further and lets you bind any protocols)
multidmz
ddns
multiple load balancing options

The first hawking firmware was so bad that they did a complete overhaul and then it still did not offer many needed features. The nexland is the standard that all should be judged by. The hawking was such a downgrade that I was completely turned off. Perhaps now they have some worth while firmware, but I remember the nexland learning curve and took 2 years for Nexland to get it right. Users on the nexland forum had to help them understand their own product and after making us beta and getting a stable firmware they sold to symantec. The hawking made me feel like I was starting over from scratch with an earlier nexland build. I felt they had no excuse for shotty firmware when nexland had been on the market so long at least nexland was breaking into new territory.

EDIT
I read the review you linked to and the reviewer noted many of the same things i did with the hawking. But two that really stood out for me were.

"Load balancing can be turned on, but the only control option is a percentage based on data transfer sessions. "

Why should I expect the Nexland Pro 800 Turbo to keep working under conditions where the Nexland ISB SOHO would break? Given the close match of their menus, and the tendency for Nexland's firmware upgrades to come out in sets, I believe that much of the software is the same. For $50 I was willing to experiment with the Hawking. For the ~$150 that 800s go for, I'm a bit reticent, given the SOHO's problems. Do you have one working on MAC-verify DHCP ADSL?

Also, does the Nexland have a sharing menu for direction to specific WAN by IP and PORT? I see I don't have a copy of the manual as I had thought to look that up.

Unfortunately, the Hawking seems to have some problem in my context where after 10 to 20 hours it goes incommunicado and has to be repowered. I caught it this morning communicado, but slow and apparently* not following the rules. Repowering fixed it. With the endless possibilities for ADSL modem and DSLAM disturbances, and ISP hacking countermeasures that may not be compatible with the router's methods of testing connectivity, it is hard to pin the blame on the Hawking with certainty,** but when this situation gets sufficiently tiresome, I will have to move higher on the router food chain. Too bad Anav's Z35 solution is 10 times the cost of the Hawking, and three times the cost of the Xincom 502.

The xincom routers do smtp binding to an interface. Also if you want to use both connections for incoming mail simply setup the second connection in the mx record for the damians you are hosting.

If the second connection is dynamic simply use a service like dyndns.org.

Exactly true. Bonding (two or more lines with a single IP address in this case) requires ISP support in addition to router support (read "pay your ISP enough and they'll do it for you"). It is not worth the money in this case since all you need is proper DNS entries. Multi-homed machines like this are very common.

There is no way naively to do this in your case. I also know of no software that runs in Windows that will do it for multiple interfaces. You might be able to hobble something up with VMWare and linux, but it would be a PITA and performance would likely suck.


Vicomsoft surfdoubler does it. Sygate does it. And a few others will. Also you can do it with mutlihoming and windows xp if you do not mind working with routing tables and manually setting routes based on interface and ip. The best use of doing this would be usenet. You would have each connection routed to a diff usenet server and use newsbin pro to connect to each server. I have 3 connections load balanced now. I have 2 6.0 dsl on my nexland pro 800 turbo and I feed it inot one of my ports on my xincom 502 with the other port on a 4.0 cable modem.

Also edimax sells a quad wan router called the BR-6541.

Probably no need for a quad wan forum as of yet. LOL.

Yes. Get a copy of Linux and the Advanced Routing How-To.

There is no way naively to do this in your case. I also know of no software that runs in Windows that will do it for multiple interfaces. You might be able to hobble something up with VMWare and linux, but it would be a PITA and performance would likely suck.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Known-Dual-Wan-Routers-for-Those-of-you-lookin-10885008 Tue, 27 Jul 2004 01:27:14 EDT Re: Known Dual Wan Routers for Those of you looking http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Known-Dual-Wan-Routers-for-Those-of-you-looking-10884205

please can someone tellme if there is any software to share 2 Internet connections with one pc?

I have 2 aDSL connections in my house.. a 1.1mb and 0.5mb... can i not use just XP and some software for load balancing/sharing without buying a router with 2 WAN ports..

I am 99% sure i once saw on the net some software that does this, but i can't find it now :(

I don't want to buy the hardware as i will only have these 2 connections for a couple of months,...

any ideas?

No that would be a Zyxel product. But with Zyxel you have to buy seven models to get 2 that function properly.
