Data off load vs Load Balance
Dears,
I would like to understand if the "data offload" feature can be used to act as a load balance procedure. Does the offloading kick in only when the MR1100 is experiencing bad connection, or I can actually use it as load balancer regardless connection quality?
Thx!
Nicola

Data offloading is not related to load balance. Offloading is to save your wireless data usage when there are other broadbands available and can be used.
When the network the device is offloaded to is down, the data connection can be revert back to wireless data to keep the data connection on. This feature is called Failover.
Thanks
