I have a small network at home using a cable connection going to a 871 router. I have added a DSL connection as a backup (uses Westell modem). I added a default route for the Westell to my 871 with a higher metric(255) than was being given to my 871 from cable's dhcp(metric of 254). Is this all that is needed? Or am I missing some other deeper config?
