[asterisk-users] Dual Wan Router with Failover

If you don't mind using linux, linux can do some fairly intense load
balancing all built in. Check out the Linux Virtual Server project.   As
for WAN failover,  if you again don't mind using linux, you can script a
simple ping to the internet (I would ping at least 3 hosts) and if that
fails, fail to your second ISP.  You can also do some crazy fun stuff
with linux advance routing and bonding.

The place where you made your stand never mattered,
only that you were there... and still on your feet
