two ADSL lines best router

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

I have hotspot user accounts and I want to have two ADSL lines (10Mbps each) and one LAN.

Is it better to buy Routers that come with two WAN or do a setting for Mikrotik?

if Mikrotik is better, What is the best code that work with Hotspot with no problem?


Note: I am using RouterOS v4.2 Lv4

PCC works well, see the Wiki. For Hotspots to work right you’ll have to add rules to capture not just forwarded traffic, but also new traffic originated from the router since Hotspots always transparently proxy DNS (and possibly HTTP?).

1- Is the blance with Microtik is better than dual WAN router like this
http://cgi.ebay.com/Linksys-RV082-8-port-10-100-VPN-Router-Dual-WAN-NEW_W0QQitemZ310180083772QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item48382c783c
Then connect this router’s LAN to Mikrotik.

2- if it is not better, It would be helpful to put the latest code that work with RouterOS v4.2 for Hotspot user accounts:
Two WAN and one LAN. The LAN will have about 80 Hotspot users

3- will MIlrotik RB450 be enough for this

Does this code work with privaye IPs for outside1 and outside 2.
Does all these lines works with routerOs v4.2 Lv4?

I would go for factory made dual wan router. I tried several times to make MT do this and failed.

I do not say MT cannot do it, or that problem is not my lack of knowledge (although I have years of experience with MT), but that setting is to compicated and very sensitive to other configuration of MT.

If you want to do this with Mikrotik, it would be good idea to separate one that would to just that two WAN connection and nothing else, and other one to do other networking stuff.

Do you know a cheap and good dual WAN router?
