We use the solution for SD-WAN failover. So, even if the regular Internet connection drops or has problems, the projects never lose the connection, allowing customers to work without interruptions.

I use Fortinet FortiExtender for my cellular network, broadband, wired modem, 5G, and LTE. I also use it for connectivity to my dial up modem. The product also works as a public modem, router, even a small firewall. Fortinet FortiExtender is usually used for small to medium networks, though it's also more commonly used for edge connectivity.
