Hi Guys,

just wanted your comments and to see if this is possible.

We unfortunately are in an area where fibre will not be installed certainly for this year. I have ADSL 2+ connection which gets 8MB down and 600k up.

However we are in an 4G area, but at the minute there isn't an unlimited 4g data plan.

Is there a way to configure the draytek to use the broadband to download and use the 4g stick which I'll buy if possible to just do the uploads, and if possible configure a certain machines to use the upload via 4g and the rest to use the broadband to upload?

I know that's a thousand questions above, but I really need to improve the upload cheaply and I think the 4G would be the way to go?

thanks
Geoff

From the specs the 2830n it seems is only supporting 3.5G/4G but there is an asterisk which i don't see details about it

USB port for network FTP, printer and 3.5G/4G* mobile broadband connectivity

If you don't get any answer soon ... i would say to contact draytek for more accurate answer info@draytek.co.uk and ask about the asterisk details if is something hidden

The 3,5 perhaps the 4G are supported according to my list from the 2830n model is this:

Hi Geoff,

This would be possible using the Policy Route feature on new routers such as the DrayTek Vigor 2860:

Policy Route guide:

It makes it possible to configure a WAN interface to be used for only specified traffic which could be the site you're uploading to.
