Peplink Balance 20 Dual-WAN Router
[gallery columns="4" orderby="rand"]
Pretty good piece of kit
I thought I would write a review about this since it is not obvious what infrastructure set-up you need to get this working on ADSL. In theory you need two ADSL modems, this router and a wireless access point. In that set-up you would set the Peplink to have a PPPOE connection to each modem. However this (very frustratingly) did not work. Peplink customer service said they could create a special firmware for me but I'd already spent a lot of time and didn't want to spend any longer.
The set-up that did finally work was to get two Netgear DG834Gs each connected to the ADSL socket in the wall then to connec the Peplink to each of these via DHCP (i.e. each Netgear is a DHCP server). Then I used a Wireless Access Point (TP-Link TL-WA901ND) connected to the Peplink and each computer then connects to the TP-Link wirelessly.
I think you can get ADSL modems with DHCP servers but I didn't try that configuration.
Now for performance. The Peplink is a great piece...
