A SpeedFusion VPN tunnel will reportedly use multiple interfaces simultaneously for the VPN tunnel and so will not be interrupted even if an interface fails, as depicted in the below image.Īlthough basic, the menus on the Peplink are relatively easy to figure out. This is unique among multi-WAN routers I’ve tested.Įvery other multi-WAN router I’ve tested will run a VPN connection over a single WAN interface that may fail over to a secondary interface if the primary interface goes down. Peplink’s SpeedFusion bonds VPN traffic between Peplink routers over multiple WAN interfaces, effectively increasing the bandwidth available to the VPN connection, as well as increasing reliability.

The Peplink Balance routers allow you to use multiple Internet connections and VPN tunnels to maintain network connectivity, even if one of your Internet Service Providers goes down.īelow is a chart listing Peplink’s Balance routers and a few basic stats to help identify each model’s target network. Peplink has nine multi-WAN VPN routers focused on providing continuous connectivity. Businesses also rely on continuous connectivity to other locations, often facilitated through VPN tunnels. In the upper left is the Peplink logo, along with the slogan “Protecting Business Continuity.” This slogan describes Peplink’s intent for its Balance routers.īusinesses rely on continuous connectivity to the Internet. Make sure to divide all values by 125000 in your dashboard to get the Mbps values.As you log into the Peplink Balance 20, you are presented with a simple screen requesting a user name and password. Hint: The speedtest outputs values as bytes per second.


You can find a demo dashboard configuration in the /demo folder. To configure Grafana, we need to add InfluxDB as a data source and create a dashboard with the upload and download values.
