¾WAN1/WAN2 – Here allows you to specify the percentage of traffic load for each WAN port in Manual Balance mode.

)Note:

In Manual Balance mode, it is recommended to set the percentage of traffic load for each WAN port according to the WAN port’s bandwidth. For example, if the bandwidth of WAN1 is 5M, while the bandwidth of WAN2 is 2M, for best performance, you’d better set the percentage of traffic load for WAN1 higher than that for WAN2.

¾Auto-Refresh- The default value is 5. Select a value in the range of 5 to 60 seconds in the pull-down list. The interval value indicates the refresh interval of the traffic statistics.

¾System Up Time - The length of the time since the router was last powered on or reset.
