I guess my ISP uses some subpar hardware because the connection keeps dropping at peak hours. I want to implement a failover system without having to buy some expensive router which I would not be able to justify with my normal usage.

Wanted to know some other ways how people do it .

    A $30 GL.iNET Opal router tethered to my cell phone. Plugged a cable from a LAN port of the Opal to the WAN or WAN2 of my pfSense router.

    If the Opal is plugged in WAN2 all the time you could have pfSense do automatic failover that is seamless.
