In System:Gateway:edit > Advanced, Weight setting a bigger number represent a better connection in the pool than a gateway with a lower weight number?

I think this can be clarified in the description text below this setting.

To quote The Holy Grail:

It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios!

:-)

Gateway A, weight 1
Gateway B, weight 3

Will result in a ratio of 1:3, so out of every 4 connections, 1 will go A, 3 will go B.

Thanks for the clarification!!! ;)

It will be nice for futures newbies (like I am) with the same question if you could add this to the description text.
