Likely for a backup cell/LTE WAN connection. Sounds like a nice feature, if it's actually what I think.


Pretty sure this is the correct answer. I've had a D-link router in the past that could fail over from ADSL to 3G in the event that the ADSL stopped working.

If just one backup isn't enough for you then this article [1] about a developer at Gitpod who works remotely might be of interest. He has 6 redundant LTE and 5G connections on his van!
