Why should you install a load balancer on your home network? (Video)

Posted on Oct / 31 / 21 (25 Heshvan 5782)Oct / 31 / 21 by Daniel Rosehill

Have you ever considered adding a load balancing router to your home network?

There are a few reasons why these devices are useful:

  • Load balancer can function as the “orchestra conductors” on your home network, directing incoming bandwidth to various devices on your local area network (LAN).
  • You can use a load balancer to group your LAN devices into groups and enforce bandwidth controls by device or by group.
  • You can configure firewalls and VPNs through which all traffic exiting the network will run.

Another extremely common use for load balancing is setting them up in multi-WAN configurations. This means using multiple connectivity sources on your home network and having the load balancing router automatically manage connectivity between them.
