LB2120 AS FAILOVER MODEM FOR NBN

Hello

I have purchased the LB2120 as a failover moden and was wanting to confirm its actual setup as does not apper to be working as a failover

 

NBN NTU OUT to

WAN IN MODEM/ROUTER LAN OUT to

WAN IN LB2120 LANOUT to [bridge mode with failover activated]

LAN IN NETWORK SWITCH to ALL CONNECTED DEVICES

 

Should the LB2120 be in this location or betweem the NBNNTU and the modem router??

Both locations have failed so far

 

Any assistance would be appreciated

Cheers

    Please connect LB2120 in the following way to use failover.

     

    1. Connect WAN port to your home broadband's LAN port

    2. Connect LAN port to your computer

    3. Enable failover. I think this is the default setting.

     

    Please advise what is your home broadband's type and modem brand and model if this is not working for you.

     

    Thanks
