Product Features

What's the difference between the Multichannel VPN Router's bonding features and WAN load distribution offered by competing products?

Competing router solutions that are able to handle more than one WAN link only offer round-robin distribution of connection streams to these WAN channels. If a WAN link used by a connection goes down, the connections running offer it will die, too. The Multichannel VPN Router on the other hand does real bundling of all WAN links - a single download is using all WAN links at the same time. If a single bundled line goes down, connections using it won't be aborted.

Is it possible to integrate existing SDSL- or leased-line-routers with the Multichannel VPN Router?

Yes, this is easily possible. External access routers and modems may be connected to the Multichannel VPN Router using an Viprinet Ethernet Module and are used just as lines connected using internal Viprinet modems.

Usage scenarios

Is the Multichannel VPN Router also suited for usage on the road?

Yes, the Multichannel VPN Router is an ideal solution for mobile applications requiring high bandwidths and good uptime. By bonding multiple UMTS/EDGE modems for example it becomes possible to do Live video streaming from next to any location.
