Connection
Priority
This option allows you to configure the WAN connection whether for
normal daily usage or as a backup connection only.
If
Always-on
is chosen, the WAN connection will be kept on
continuously, regardless of the priority of other WAN connections.
If
Backup
is chosen, the WAN connection will depend on other WAN
connections. It will not be used when one or more higher priority
dependent WAN connections are connected.
Independent
from Backup
WANs
If this is checked, the connection will be working independent from
other Backup WAN connections. Those in Backup Priority will ignore the
status of this WAN connection, and will be used when none of the other
higher priority connections are available
