4G Backup plan – How does it work?
The subscription includes a router with a failover function. With this function, the internet connection can be received via a fixed line (WAN port) as well as via 4G (SIM card). The router will automatically switch to another Internet connection if the main connection fails. For example to 4G if the fixed internet line goes down, or vice versa. As soon as the main connection is working again, the router switches back to it as quickly as possible, this is called fallback. The handy thing about the included 4G failover router is that you can insert two SIM cards, each from a different provider, for extra security. If one connection does not work, you can use the other 4G connection.
