Feature Request: Add 4G/LTE Modem Support to R7500

I`m using currently the Nighthawk R7500 and came from Asus to the Netgear Router. The most what I miss is the is WAN Failover where the Router switches automaticall from the DSL to the LTE/4G connection from the attached USB stick. Or even a permanent WAN connection over 3G/4G Dongle connected to the Router. I know that this Feature are using lot of people but somehow its not possible to Setup on the Nighthawk Modells.

Hope to see a LTE/4G implementation in the Nighthawk Routers which would make this routers much more Premium.

The Asus used a dd-wrt style firmware and the Netgear does not support switching a lan port in to wan (internet) port nice if it would but the firmware does not support it .

Customers can now use LTE modem https://www.netgear.com/home/products/mobile-broadband/lte-modems/ that can be used in conjunction with any router to achieve failover functionality.
