    Is it possible to use the blue WAN port on a F2000 device as a WAN backup when using VDSL as the primary means of connectivity?
    I intend to connect a secondary connection to the blue ethernet WAN port such that it would provide connectivity in the event of an Eir outage. It would receive its address dynamically from the attached backup connection.

    Hi there rphoist

    Thank you for getting in touch with use here.  Unfortunately this is not something that we will be able to assist or comment on from here but we did send this to our Tech Support to see if they can advise us further with a more detailed answer

    They did suggest calling them 1890260260 directly you but for now (from info received), they would not advise to do this
