==Testing the configuration==
Your device should now have two wired WAN connections.
<ul>
<li>Set the Wired (WAN) interface as the main WAN connection.</li>
<li>Set the new interface as WAN [[RUT955_Failover|failover]] and save the changes.
<li>Go to [www.whatsmyip.com] and check your public IP address.<br></li>
<li>Then unplug the main WAN cable and check again. If the interface failed over correctly, the website should show a different IP address than before.<br></li>
<li>Plug the main WAN cable back in and wait a bit. Refresh the website; the IP should have change back to the one shown in the first place.</li>
