      I am wondering, where I can find the best instructions on how to configure my Netgate 2100 to have two WAN connections and engage a failover to WAN-2, if WAN-1 goes down.

          Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
          When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
