FAILOVER / FAILBACK
In order to utilize of the Failover/Failback features
of your MBR1200, you must establish one of these
two scenarios:
1) Connect two different active data modems
(USB, ExpressCard, or PC Card) from two
separate carriers to the MBR1200.
2) Connect an active LAN/WAN connection and
one active data modem to the MBR1200.
If your primary service is disrupted, the MBR1200
will find the next available connection (Failover),
keeping you connected to the internet.
Once your primary service is re-established, it will
return (Failback) to that connection.
