CRADLEPOINT IBR600 | USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.3.0

7.1 Connection Manager

The router can establish an uplink via the Ethernet WAN port, WiFi as WAN, or the embedded modem. If the primary

WAN connection fails the router will automatically attempt to bring up a new link on another device. This feature is called

failover. If Load Balance is enabled, multiple WAN devices may be plugged in and each may establish a link.

7.1.1 WAN Interfaces

This is a list of the available interfaces used

to access the internet. You can enable, stop,

or start devices from this section. By using

the priority arrows (the arrows in the red

boxes; these show if you have more than

one available interface), you can set the interface the router uses by default and the order that it allows failover. To

configure a specific interface, use the settings page for that type of interface (e.g. Ethernet Settings page for wired

connections).

In the example shown, Ethernet is set as the primary internet source, while the embedded modem is a backup. The

Ethernet is ―Connected‖ while the modem is ―Idle.‖

Load Balance: If this is enabled, the router will use multiple WAN interfaces to increase the data transfer throughput by

using any connected WAN interface consecutively. Selecting Load Balance will automatically start the WAN interface and

add it to the pool of WAN interfaces to use for data transfer. Turning off Load Balance for an active WAN interface may

require the user to restart any current browsing session.
