flashg67 said:I WFH and live in a rural area so my 'normal' broadband does sometimes cut out, so I have a 4g router as back up just in case. You do have to reconnect each device manually to whichever broadband source you want, I know of no way to auto switch everything.
the main problem with issues at home is that the LAN itself stays up just loses it's external connection , meaning you have to switch from the LAN to your backup connection unless you have a Router / Switch set up to do many- to-many , which while not necessarily 'Enterprise' level stuff does needa bit of fiddling under the 'bonnet' , which for occasional use is probably excessive unless connections are mission/ life critical
