hi friends!
You can have 2 internet providers in a single router, let me explain better ...
I have my internet connection through WAN port connected to my R9000, but there is another 5ghz connection that I would like to connect it to my R9000 router in the case of when the internet that arrives through the WAN connector goes down ... something like this
Or 2 WAN cables ... can you do something like that? _________________ Fiber Modem/Router: ZTE-ZXHN F670L ►►►►►► Internet 1

Not sure if this will work with your router, but you might have a look at this wiki:

There is actually a Dual WAN category. Check out all of those pages. Some are more up-to-date then others. _________________ Before asking a question on the forums, update dd-wrt: Where do I download firmware? I suggest reading it all.
