Ahhh. fallback. Another new (to me) option. I relish the idea of making my tcrules simpler so I will look into migrating some of these features into my own config. > (see my config at the bottom of the Multi-ISP > doc). Wow. It is simply uncanny how that diagram reflects my configuration. One less interface, where I don't have a server on a dedicated interface, but I have the ports (and vlan capability) on the router to do it if I wanted. But that whole explanation of the slow DSL vs. the high-speed cable connection and using the latter for all traffic except connections that originate from the Internet and are destined via the DSL to a static IP (only one in my case). Simply uncanny. Ahh. One fairly significant difference is that my router is the endpoint (i.e. has the static address assigned from) of the DSL connection, not a path to the static IP as in our case. Although from your route_rules file, it appears that your DSL IP is 206.124.146.180, yes? Cheers and much thanx for the heads up on all of this! b.
