Please help me out, I am not sure if it is even possible but is there a way to have 2x connections from 2 different internet providers to a single modem?
I currently have the Gigablast service through Cox. No speed complaint here but for some reason, they have been having a lot of outages lately. The only other internet provider in my area is Century Link but their fastest speed is only 80mbps so I don't think I want to switch over. From my basic knowledge, Cox provides their network through the coaxial cable while Century Link does it through the phone line.
Is there a modem that is able to pick up both their service at the same time? I want to use Cox as my main network and Century Link as my secondary. I know I can just buy 2 modems and 2 routers because Cox and Century Link are on different network and connections. But the thing is if I do, once Cox network is down, I would need to manually connect over to Century Link. Ultimately, I just don't want my internet disconnected. Is there a modem that is able to pick up service from both providers? If Cox is down, the modem automatically switch over to Century Link and my network won't be down
