Hi guys,
just as I have added a little more smart home products, my virgin media BB fails on me, and alas that is not all that rare.
So need some advice, but no jargon cos i am really clueless on this network malarky.
So I have a virgin media super hub 2, but also have a 4G modem. I am wanting to hook the VM to a new independent wifi router, have all my gear connected to that wifi and also have it connected to a switch for more ethernet ports. I then want, when Virgin goes down, to be able to unplug the VM moden, plug in the 4G modem, and everything connect to the internet and still work. Can I achieve this? does being on a different modem with presumably different IP screw it up. Im clueless, need help
To add, I know the VM can be put into modem mode, so thats good...but no idea about the 4g modem, which is a Huawei B311. That has wifi and one ethernet port. I have a feeling that is where my cunning plan may fall over, in which case it will require a new 4g modem that can be configured...I'm guessing |
