Route sentry allows you to have 2 Internet connections on one PC. One connection will be for your cheap, local bandwidth, and the other connection will be for your expensive international bandwidth. Route sentry routes all your local traffic through your local account and your international traffic through your international account automatically for you.
This would therefore mean that browsing local websites, such as mybroadband.co.za, will be a lot cheaper.

Is there a list of compatible routers for routesentry?

If you can put your router into bridge mode it's compatible.

Just make sure your router supports bridge mode.

yes, route sentry simply splits the internet traffic between a local account and an international account. as mentioned above, the most important thing is having your router set into bridged mode and being able to create multiple pppoe connections from windows.

That is just super. But thanks to Telkom I will now have to wait another 2 weeks bcoz they "lost" my ADSL order. Bloody useless fools. And the best of all is when I went to the Telkom shop in Menlyn to talk to the consultant who captured the order....... THEY ARE CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS/MOVING SHOP.
Wonderful hey?.
