1. Do I need two internet connections to use dual-WAN?
   No. It works fine with one connection. A second WAN is for backup failover or load balancing when you want maximum uptime.
   
2. Can I use this for secure remote access?
   Yes. It supports VPN options like OpenVPN, PPTP, and site-to-site VPN so you can connect back into the network securely.
   
3. Do I have to use OvrC Pro?
   No. It works as a standard router out of the box. OvrC Pro is what unlocks remote monitoring and management, especially useful if you manage multiple sites.
