good morning dudes, i'm balancing wery well with nth 2,1 and nth 1,1 routeros version 3.0, i need to balance 8 wans, how is the correct nth config for 8 wans? thanks

Hi Lukkes,

I'm also very interested in this too. This weekend I'm planning on trying out load balancing with a 493AH with 8 X ADSL lines (only choice in a remote location with no "proper" IP feed).

How NTH works in v3.x is explained in this wiki article.

Thanks a lot for your answer, i've read alot of times the iki but really dont understand, somebody can explainme detailed how it works, and much better if somebody knows the config for 8 wans? thanks again

OMG .. the same example as in wiki except you will have 8 rules instead of 3 and nth from 1 to 8. Thats it.

/ip firewall mangle
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=1 nth=8,1 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=2 nth=8,2 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=3 nth=8,3 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=4 nth=8,4 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=5 nth=8,5 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=6 nth=8,6 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=7 nth=8,7 passthrough=yes;
add action=mark-packet chain=prerouting new-packet-mark=8 nth=8,8 passthrough=yes;

thanks dude, i think the same of you, but in the wiki tak about the passthrough and f is on or off change the match of the rule, maybe somebody has tested, anyway i will try with your help, thanks again
