Does anyone know which mikrotik model can work with 8 WAN or more load balance? I have tried RB450G for 4WAN 1 LAN PCC load balance before so I have the command already but want to make if it possible (hardware suppport) for mikrotik to do 8 WAN 1 LAN load balance.
I'v checked and found 2 model but that have quite a lot of ETH ports.

MikroTik RB1100AHx2

MikroTik RB2011iL-IN - Multi-Port Router

Anyone can suggest ? any suggestion would be very appreciate.

What throughput per port and in total do you expect? What pps do you expect?

I had a load balance setup with 12 pppoe for wan with a RB1100AHx2.

There were 12 adsl lines with the adsl routers acting as adsl bridge and the mikrotik having the actual pppoe interface.
The bandwidth per line was 10-12 Mbit.

The router was acting as hotspot and serving more than 1500 users with no problem.
The only issue was at first when I had used web-proxy in order to try and block torrent downloads.
That drained the CPU. When I turned the proxy off the CPU usage is at 30% on average.

Of course it all depends on your configuration, firewall rules, mangle rules, layer7 inspection etc.
I had tried to optimize the setup as much as I could.

EDIT:

At the time there was no RB2011.
Recently i setup a RB2011 for a friend with 6x 4Mbit pppoe over ADSL with no issue at all. Of course the setup was simple, DHCP, DNS, NAT, no proxy, no layer7 or any other CPU consuming services.

If you'd like get setup with no issues, my recommendation is to get device with ports connected directly to CPU (take a look on diagrams on routerboard.com), not through switch group. I mean issues like dropping connections (for example network games and voip), loosing routes and long convergence time. We've had lot of issues like that but after replacing 1100's and 1200's for 1016 and 1036 problems are gone (we've been investigating it for months but topology is little complicated with different vendors devices and solving our problems was just a side effect because old 1100's and 1200's were too slow).

I am starting same setup.up to 10 wan from same ISP of 4 Mbps each and up to 200 active hotspot user.
Can you share which load balancing you used.and also which hardware.


Help needed.

We are starting the same service with 10 or more wan connection from ISP in PPOE mode with 4 mbps each.and share this speed to 200 client with hotspot .please share about which load balancing you used and equipment details.
We are LCP(local cable partners) of our isp. so isp gives connectivity with Lan Line in Bridged mode.

Thanx
