Static Route - Google Maps... was created by bluetba2
I have two internet connections, one is bandwidth limited but much higher speed, the other is poor speed but unlimited usage, we have a Google maps api which we have discovered is using a lot of our bandwidth, so would like to pass this all down the slower unlimited connection, the issue is that I have loads of IP addresses for Google maps that could constantly change, so the obvious way is to do it via the host-name, the issue I am sure you can already see is that when I create a static route I have to do so via IP address, is there anyway to do it via the host-name?

so any traffic to maps.google.com go through the slower connection, and all other traffic goes down the higher speed connection? I have a draytek 2830 at the moment, but would buy another product if required.

i know is not help full but just to know in the future

for load balance see possible ways ( the 2830 should be ok, if the 2830 can not do what you need i think all other draytek models should be the same, as the guides applying to almost every model with dual wan)
