Designed for settings in which losing your Internet connection is not an option, The Nexland ISB Pro800turbo doubles your network's throughput by load-balancing 2 independent Internet Connections making them seem as one. Mix DSL, Cable and or T1 connections for increased speed and redundancy.

The web-based interface allows you to define percentages of use for each line. If one line goes down, 100% of the traffic is sent to the good line automatically. A serial connection behind the Nexland ISB Pro800turbo automatically keeps your network connected to the Internet via an external analog or ISDN modem* in the unlikely event that both your primary connections go down.

Dynamic DNS is supported allowing you to use domain names for your servers even if your IP changes. You can even double the upload off your servers by using round-robin DNS services. The Nexland ISB Pro800turbo also features Nexland's patent-pending technology which supports unlimited IPsec VPN tunnels behind the firewall. You can ensure that your data is secure whether it is on the corporate network or on your home computer.

Security, performance, peace of mind... What more can you ask for?

well.



when I have the DSL and Cable connected, I would see my room-mate, girlfriends, and my yahoo log on and off all day when I am @ work. When home we see our selfs log in and out of any chat program every few minuts @ times.


I have read that some people get packet losses with this router, and when this happens the router would freeze.


I think that is what is happening to me. When I try to log into the router when I have problems I get page can not be displayed.



but then there are days when this thing works great. Pulls data from both lines and all the computers on my network are happy.

Ok, Ill ask him next time I see him. In the meantime, you should post the Q on the DSL reports.com forums too, see if they know something. Probably the networking forum for starters
