We have a router hooked up to our T1, and the router went down the other day and caused our phones to go down so i had an idea to use a backup router. I know very little about networking. Is it possible to hook up 2 routers to a T1 so that if one fails, the other will kick on and take over until the other kicks back on? I understand that with this, everything being routed to one router will have to turn around to go back through the other router and will cause a stop of like 50 seconds or so. but thats no big deal. just want to know if this is possible. thanks in advance.
