I am having difficulties with my dsl line and would like to be able to use a oridinary v90 modem as a failover position.

I have the dsl modem plugged into a ethernet port and the v90 modem pluged into a serial port.

Everything works well if I manually reconfigure things but is there an automatic solution?

.. I use a Netgear FR328 router that does this for me - no reconfiguration of the SME box required!
