1 Product Features
Pepwave routers enable all LAN users to share broadband Internet connections, and they provide advanced features to enhance Internet access. Our Max BR wireless routers support multiple SIM cards. They can be configured to switch from using one SIM card to another SIM card according to different criteria, including wireless network reliability and data usage.
Our MAX HD series wireless routers are embedded with multiple 4G LTE modems, and allow simultaneous wireless Internet connections through multiple wireless networks. The wireless Internet connections can be bonded together using our SpeedFusion technology. This allows better reliability, larger bandwidth, and increased wireless coverage compared to use only one 4G LTE modem.
Below is a list of supported features on Pepwave routers. Features vary by model. For more information, please see peplink.com/products.

3 Advanced Feature Summary
3.1 Drop-in Mode and LAN Bypass: Transparent Deployment

As your organization grows, it may require more bandwidth, but modifying your network can be tedious. In Drop-in Mode, you can conveniently install your Peplink router without making any changes to your network. For any reason your Peplink router looses power, the LAN Bypass will safely and automatically bypass the Peplink router to resume your original network connection.
Note: Drop-in mode is compatible for All MAX models except MAX BR1 IP67
3.2 QoS: Clearer VoIP

VoIP and videoconferencing are highly sensitive to latency. With QoS, Peplink routers can detect VoIP traffic and assign it the highest priority, giving you crystal-clear calls.

3.3 Per-User Bandwidth Control

With per-user bandwidth control, you can define bandwidth control policies for up to 3 groups of users to prevent network congestion. Define groups by IP address and subnet, and set bandwidth limits for every user in the group.
3.4 High Availability via VRRP

When your organization has a corporate requirement demanding the highest availability with no single point of failure, you can deploy two Peplink routers in High Availability mode. With High Availability mode, the second device will take over when needed.

3.9 DPI Engine
The DPI report written in the updated KB article will show further information on InControl2 through breaking down application categories into subcategories. https://forum.peplink.com/t/updated-ic2-deep-packet-inspection-dpi-reports- and-everythi ng-you-need-to-know-about-it/29658
3.10 NetFlow
NetFlow protocol is used to track network traffic. Tracking information from NetFlow can be sent to the NetFlow collector, which analyzes data and generates reports for review. Note: To enable this feature, go to https://<Device’s IP>/cgi-bin/MANGA/support.cgi

3.11 Wi-Fi Air Monitoring
Pepwave routers support Wi-Fi “Air Monitoring Mode” which used to troubleshoot remotely and proactively monitor Wi-Fi and WAN performance. The report can be viewed under InControl 2 > Reports > AirProbe Reports after enabling Wi-Fi Air Monitoring. Note: To enable this feature, go to https://<Device’s IP>/cgi- bin/MANGA/support.cgi

3.12 SP Default Configuration
The SP Default Configuration feature written in the updated KB article allows for the provisioning of custom made settings (a.k.a. InControl2 configuration) via the Ethernet LAN port and is ideal for those wanting to do a bulk deployment of many Peplink devices. Note: If you would like to use this feature, please contact your purchase point (Eg.VAD).

3.13 SpeedFusion Cloud Relay
Cloud Service Providers often restrict access to certain applications. With SFC Relay, you can route traffic before going out to the Internet, allowing access to previously restricted applications experienced with the public SpeedFusion Cloud nodes. Available as an add-on for your home router or as an upgradable license to your Peplink router, SFC Relay is sure to impress you and any peers you give access to. https://forum.peplink.com/t/configure- speedfusion-cloud-relay-server-and-client/6215ca9 b017e48e0f3ff2479/
3.14 DNS over HTTPS (DoH)
DoH provides the benefits of communicating DNS information over a secure HTTPS connection in an encrypted manner. The protocol offers increased privacy and confidentiality by preventing data interception and man-in-the-middle attacks.
