Happy for you that the "portal clients don't get disconnected" was solved at the end of week 20 :D

An average of 600 user on line …. where do you use this portal interface ?
What kind of WAN connection ?

Why do you have 5 WAN connections?

jaspras

1200 Guests… and out ISP dont give any more than 24 MBit

A couple more questions.
Where are your users stored.
If radius, do you have 'reauthenticate every 60 secs turned on?

jaspras

No i don't use radius since is a free service i provide a single local user

Guest

That's pretty badass man +1… Do you use any QoS to prevent any 1 end user from hogging all the bandwidth?

jaspras

Yeah Gotta gotta have it… no matter the bandwidth... although queuing is good until is bad...
