We offer two ISPs—primary and a backup. A router with dual WAN ports can link all LAN devices to the primary ISP, automatically switching to the backup if needed. Such routers are available; examples include models supporting 100Mbps connections. You can set static IPs for each WAN port as requested.

The Edgerouter X stands out as the most affordable choice for this task. Alternatives include Edgerouter Lite, Edgrouter 4, and the USG for a more managed setup.

I looked for similar routers and discovered this Amazon product. The price gap between it and the Edgerouter X is significant—am I missing something or will the TP-Link model suffice? And thank you for your patience; a controlled router manages traffic efficiently, allowing all devices to connect via a single network without needing advanced setup. Just two ISPs, a router, and switches connecting the PCs.

It seems Ubiquiti isn't widely used there, which explains the higher cost. A managed router can be controlled via software or hardware, offering centralized management and data tracking. For your setup, a TP Link device would suffice.
