Your business relies on its Internet connection. As Internet connectivity becomes more essential for yout business, losing it, even for a brief period can be a real problem. No Internet means no email, no web browsing and in many cases, no work.
ISPs don't offer an 'SLA' (reliability agreement/guarantee) on ADSL lines and even if yours does, that can't actually guarantee that your line will always work, and can always be fixed immediately. A line fault, ISP maintenance, ISP routing failure, cable damage, power failures at the ISP or exchange - all of these can break your connection - for a short time, or even for days.
What would happen if it fails for a brief period or even an extended period during the day. What impact will that have on your efficiency, productivity and your business in general?
DrayTek routers not only provide a vast array of security and connectivity features, they have secondary connections for an alternative (backup) Internet connection. For example, with a Vigor2820 ADSL Router/Firewall, your primary feed would be ADSL. In the event of that failing, the Vigor2820 will automatically switch over to one of the following:
- A second ADSL line, using a separate ADSL modem and different ISP
- 3G Cellular Data using a USB 3G modem (e.g. T-Mobile, Orange, Vodafone etc.)
- A cable-modem service (e.g. VirginMedia)
- ISDN dialup (single or dual channel) ('S' model only)
- Any other Internet connection via an Ethernet cable
Once your primary (main) broadband service is restored, the router again automatically switches back to that. As well as failover mode, when both connections are available, the router can use both at the same time to provide more total Internet bandwidth to your network.
Hopefully, your broadband service is reliable most of the time. Even if you've never had a problem, allowing for one gives you peace of mind that you will be able to cope.
