Load balancing solution

HI, 

I am having FortiGate 300D and I want to configure WAN load balancing. I have two ISP connections as WAN1 = 60Mbps and WAN2 = 350 Mbps. 

Which are the best load balancing algorithm for me and I am thinking about Weighted algorithm then how I set the weight?

you can set the weight to the bandwidth for each interfaces. That would work.

"Best" is way too vague...

Hi, 

Thanks for your reply. What will happen if my one is having 350 Mbps and the second link is 60 Mbps speed? How will I configure weight?

Becuase we can configure maximum 250 weight to an interface
