Need a secondary/backup route to the Internet in Windows SBS 2003. We have one DSL connection running through a Watchguard X15w, but it is not 100% reliable. We have dial-up access to the provider as well and would like to setup an automatic route change to demand dial-up account if external network on DSL goes down. Currently, all computers and server are plugged into the Watchguard, and I would like to keep it this way. I have played with static routes a bit, but as soon as I enable the dial-up interface in the static routes, all Internet traffic initiates the demand dial-up route....Anyone have information that could help me with this?....
