(only supported by Gateway)
The access point is equipped with the exclusive Parallel Broadband technology
to provide scalable Internet bandwidth with Load Balancing and Fail-Over
Redundancy.
By installing multiple units of the access point cascaded using Parallel
Broadband, you may balance the Internet traffic generated from your private
network over multiple broadband connections - providing the network with
aggregated bandwidth! In the event of a particular broadband connection
failing, the access point in cascade will use the remaining functional
broadband channels, giving you an added peace of mind with its Fail-Over
Redundancy capability.
To implement Parallel Broadband, you will need to install two or more access
points in the network, each connected to its broadband Internet service
account. There is no restriction to the type of broadband Internet accounts
they are connected to (whether Cable or ADSL). You may thus have one
Access point connected to Cable Internet, and another to an ADSL line. When
these access points operate in the Gateway mode using Parallel Broadband,
you need to configure them by firstly enabling Parallel Broadband, thus
enabling the WDS, and finally setting these access points to the same ESSID.
