If you can feed the 2 connections into a Dual WAN Router you can use the two connection for one Networks automatically.

Hi all.

2 ISPs are configured in 2 broadband routers with LAN IP 192.168.0.1 and
terminate in 2 different networks. ( 1 hub with 5 workstations and 1 switch
with 15 workstations ) thus not conflicting. IP range 100 - 120 and gateway
192.168.0.1 for all workstations. When one of the ISP goes down, i d/c the
LAN port of router from specific switch ( to avoid ip conflict ) and connect
another cable "switch to hub" trying to shift traffic to other switch / hub
automatically. This sometimes works, sometimes does not. If it doesnt, i have
to disable enable ethernet card manually to make it work. Workstations show
192.168.0.1 timed out until disabled and re-enabled.
Looking for something that would work for sure.. Would a switch instead of
hub work? Any other way i can do this just by shifting cables?

TIA
