Model: ER8411  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.0 Build 20220812 Rel.66580
I just bought an ER8411 router. I have two internet services connected. I have link backup connection already configured. The problem is that it is not adding the bandwidth of the two services. How can I do?

I think you may just misunderstand 'load-balancing'.  What this means is that each attempt to establish a connection is assigned one of the two paths to the internet, let's call them either A-path or B-path.  What that means is any given connection can either have the BW of the A connection, or the B connection, but not  A+B.  From a site perspective, the load is balance, but from a client perspective, it is not.

It explains why. Where do you learn from this knowledge that load balancing is supposed to aggregate your Internet speed?
