This feature isn't only neccesary in business,  i consider it's an easy and interesting feature that could be added to any low/mid range router

 

Not necessarily the router has to count with two or more wan ports,  the purpose is to add an option to auto change the internet Gateway when no connection..

 

The two (or more) gateways modems/ont/routers  we know that must be connected thru a Lan switch to the wan port of the router  to do that commutation... 

 

Don't know if i'm explaining myself very well..................

Thank you for your receptiveness, i hope this interesting feature becomes possible  

yes use the wan port & one of the lan ports together

  @tonyjp2022  Yes, it's a feature hardware-based that i've seen in some Asus routers

 

But what i propose is to add it as an internal feature in the firmware of routers (in models which possible to add it) 

 

It would be something like:

 

 

Enter router configuration interface ip or in the app:

---> Internet Setting >  Set ip: *Static* 

Then a submenu deploys:

 

--- > Auto switch Default Gateway if internet connection fails?  Enable ▢

 

        --- > Select gateway by priority ip1: __.__.__.__  ; gateway ip2: __.__.__.__ ; gateway ip3: __.__.__.__  ............................................

 

        --- > Switch gateway if no internet connection detected (or no ping received) after:   ___ seconds 

                --- > If no connection detected:  Do a Retry ▢  -   Switch immediately ▢  

 

 

 

((( Something like that or similar is what occurs to me...  could start doin it with the AX73 *__*  )))

 

 

very interesting feature that could be added to any router, including the most cheapest models :-D

yes just firmware update to use the feature yes it should work though many models

  @GeorKhawam - I would love that too!

 

My primary WAN connection is data limited. I want to add another WAN connection from another provider as backup.

 

I would be fine if the router decided what packets to send over which WAN link or there could be a rule set up.

I want to be able to have two WAN connections on my AX73.
