 When configuring a router in a MultiWAN configuration, it's important to understand that the MultiWAN function performs load-sharing of the links. Load sharing is performed on a per-session basis to prevent issues with interactive traffic, such as real-time voice/video, or RDP. Setting the Load Balance Weight on each interface adjusts how that interface will participate in MultiWAN activities. The examples below provide more details.\\  \\ Load Balance Weight: 0\\ If "0" is used, FreshTomato will not actively route traffic, but the WAN connection with weight "0" will automatically be enabled if all other primary interfaces with weight greater than "1" fail. This is commonly used in "failover" scenarios. When an interface with weight "0" is us auto-enabled, it will be assigned a weight of 1. When configuring a router in a MultiWAN configuration, it's important to understand that the MultiWAN function performs load-sharing of the links.
