It is what we've called the ' Ultimate DSL router' supporting both ADSL or VDSL & packed with professional level features to increase security, flexibility & functionality, making it ideal as your standard router for almost any scenario. As well as ADSL/VDSL support, alternative WAN ports can instead provide connectivity to Ethenet feeds (Gigabit WAN2 is switchable with LAN Port 5 (*requires f/w 3.8.8 or later, otherwise 5th Ethernet port is for WAN2 only.)), secondary x DSL modems or a 3G/4G cellular service using a supported USB (Universal Serial Bus) adapter (or there is the Vigor 2862 Ln model with 3G/4G/LTE built-in). These multiple LAN feeds can be combined for failover or load-balancing. ** Runs on either ADSL or VDSL** The Vigor 2862's built in DSL interface will connect to either an ADSL or VDSL2 line. If you have a second line (of either type) you can add an additional modem (or your existing modem from your other line) to the Vigor 2862's Ethernet WAN ports. You can set the two lines up in load balancing mode, where traffic is split across both of them, or into failover mode, where the other DSL line only kicks-in if your primary DSL line fails (or vice versa). ADSL makes a particularly good method of failover for VDSL because they are delivered differently. VDSL service is provided & powered by a cabinet in your street
- that's where the line terminates. ADSL service, on the other h&, comes all the way from your local exchange, which could be miles away & is powered from there. That means that if your street's VDSL cabinet is damaged, its DSLAM fail
