Hi all,
I am interested if anyone knows of an affordable switch that i can use
to load balance between a DSL ethernet line and a Canopy ethernet line.
Some of my customers want to keep their existing DSL line active, but at the same time send all WEB traffice over the Canopy system.
Looking for a small switch that has two innie-ports that will redirect traffice based on port value and if one line goes bad, transfer the whole load to the other line.
Thanks, Miles@telecron.com
ps, running 5.7 ghz Canopy in Europe.

you could try using a fortinet firewall such as fg60. it has two wan interfaces and can do ping based failover. you can also do specific service allocation via one wan interface.
should be around $US700. There is also a similar product from linksys, but I've never tried that myself, which has two WAN interfaces. Linksys is less than $US400
