D7000 - how to force use of WAN and VDSL2 connections

[yaronyitzhak]

I recently bought the D7000 and have a VDSL2 connection of 50MB and a WAN Fibre Connection of 100MB and I'd like to use both connections.

Is there any ways to do so on the D7000? Also, if not, I have a fixed IP on the VDSL2 line and would like route traffic which comes on that lines to a LAN address, is this doable provided I use both connections ?

I really doubt that the D7000 can automatically load balance across both a WAN fiber and VDSL2 connection.  Load balancing is usually a feature found on business class routers.  You may be able to use static routes to manually balance traffic across both connections, but I'm not sure if static routes can point to addresses on the WAN port.  In any case, this would be a pain to maintain to say the least.

I don't think there is any way to set up the D7000 to direct all traffic from the VDSL2 line to a single LAN address.  Well, you could set up the LAN address as a DMZ server on the D7000, but that's not quite the same thing.
