Anyone have a Dual-WAN router for 2 Internet connections?

[downtown]

Hey, I just ordered DSL to back up my cable modem, and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with consumer-grade dual WAN routers, such as this EDIMAX (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833315050) or this XTERASYS (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833147007) model. (Note: Links are to newegg, with whom I have no affiliation.) Or any other DSL+Cable / 2 Internet connection solutions? Thanks.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Seems like he is trying to increase his bandwidth or provide himself with failover for his Internet connection or both.

Nice idea. I have no experience with either product, or for that matter, the manufacturers.

Please tell us how this works out for you.

Well I found a Linksys VPN router that allows 2 WAN connections that I think I may end up using. I'll make a post if/when I get it hooked up in the next couple of weeks, as I can't believe this isn't more popular among tourney players as a backup. DSL is so cheap - I got SBC Yahoo DSL as a backup for $15/month for a year contract. Cheap insurance.

(I did a search but gained nothing fruitful, despite my mad 2+2 +searching -skills)

I'm trying to use DSL as a back-up to my cable modem. I play 8 $33 tournaments at a time, (and occasionally 8 x $55s) and if my connection went bust, potentially so would 5% of my bankroll. It's worth a few dollars of insurance in DSL and a UPS. If I get something rigged up, I'll let you guys know and probably make a post in MTT and STT. Thanks.
