Can this device provide that capability?** A: With Link Backup function, the router will switch all the new sessions from dropped lines automatically to another to keep an always on-line network. Choose the menu Transmission > Load Balancing > Link Backup and click Add. Then, specify the primary WAN port, the backup WAN port, and whether you would prefer to use the "Timing" or "Failover" configuration. Timing: Link Backup will be enabled if the specified effective time is reached. All the traffic on the primary WAN will switch to the backup WAN at the beginning of the effective time; the traffic on the backup WAN will switch to the primary WAN at the ending of the effective time. Failover (Enable backup link when any primary WANs fails): Link Backup will be enabled when any primary WANs fails. Failover (Enable backup link when all primary WANs fail): Link Backup will be enabled only when all primary WANs fail. **Q: Home user looking for gigabit speed with load balancing and failover support, plus will this truly handle gigabit speed? Will this work for me?** A: Yes, the TL-R605 supports WAN failover and is designed for Gigabit Ethernet networking.

I could not get any LAN from however i had store this item in cart for a long time and have been watching itso finally it was baught. I had no doubt about if or not it would work having experience with TP-Link i felt 100% confident in their products. I have been using one of their access point in organization for a couple years now it works perfectly fine. This router is solid from the company going with their switch i baught last year. I was amaze with their soft ware even my cousin was taken back becaus he loves another brand but he loved the set up inside. It can take in up to two ISP it wasn't hard to set up quick and easy to log in create new password and in the quick set up to get internet set up. I didn't have to read the manual for that. Once your all set you will experience a new smooth service right off the bat, there few things to keep in mind it is a home and business router so it has high end set up inside so it is capable of handling DHCP, VPN, 2WAN and other smart set up. In some cases may need someone experience to set it up properly depending your desire. NOTE it is not a POE router meaning it cannot send that extra power for cameras that may need POE I would recommend it at anytime for small set up like mind because i have multiple tv, cable box, access points, routers and printer so its a for a home set up which handles alot of load at time. So i have a dedicated switch for that too which is a TP-LINK. Because of that this router can handle that load and also has lighting protection. You can also down load the app and control it from cloud so you don't really need to be physically around to login and make adjustment. There are videos on you tube that can help with that set up. Make sure the device is on a good ups for protection read through notes before buying make sure the setup you are doing is the correct set up for this router and then if it is an know your going to enjoy your purchase. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link ER605 V2 Wired Gigabit VPN Router, Up to 3 WAN Ethernet Ports + 1 USB WAN, SPI Firewall SMB Router, Omada SDN Integrated, Load Balance, Lightning Protection - TP-Link Omada Hardware Controller | SDN Integrated | PoE Powered | Manage Up to 100 Devices | Easy & Intelligent Network Monitor & Maintenance | Cloud Access & Omada App (OC200) - TP-Link EAP610 Ultra-Slim Wireless Access Point for Business | Omada True Wi-Fi 6 AX1800 | DC Adapter Included | Mesh, Seamless Roaming, WPA3, MU-MIMO | Remote & App Control | PoE+ Powered --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/259342870-er605-v2-wired-gigabit-vpn-router](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/259342870-er605-v2-wired-gigabit-vpn-router) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
