Internet Failover Protection
When fibre drops, MagNet doesn't wait for your OS routing table to time out. Keepalives detect a dead path in milliseconds and shift flows to surviving links — your tunnel IP stays, your meeting stays.
No SD-WAN appliance
Install on a Pi, PC, or OpenWrt — minutes not months.
Encrypted tunnel
ChaCha20-Poly1305 on every path.
Dashboard visibility
See which ISP is active and when failover fired.
Hot failover vs cold failover
Cold failover = new TCP session, dropped call, re-auth VPN. Hot failover = same MagNet tunnel session, paths change underneath. MagNet implements hot failover in Failover and Speed modes.
- Sub-second path switch on link death
- Tunnel IP unchanged — apps don't reconnect
- Proactive probing — switch before users notice
- Works with 2–4 WAN inputs
Business continuity
Retail POS, remote branches, and home offices can't afford 'internet down' for 30 seconds. Bond fibre + LTE and let MagNet handle the blip while staff keep working.
Failover mode
Dedicated Failover mode sticks to the best probed path and moves as soon as keepalives prove another link is healthier — ideal when you want simplicity over max Mbps.
