What is a router with 2 WAN ports?

Tell me which router is better to take to set up a network in a small office. Here are the basic requirements:
1) The router must be with 2 WAN ports, so that you can put a regular provider into 1 port, and insert ADSL into the second. The task is to make sure that the Internet at the office practically does not disappear at all. That is, so that 2 WAN ports can automatically work simultaneously, or switching takes place automatically, without connecting a specialist for this matter.
2) It is desirable to have wi-fi. Since at the office almost all PCs are connected via a wireless connection.
3) Adequate price. It is desirable that it be up to $ 200.
Now I have found one suitable: D-link DSR500n. But the nuance is interesting, maybe there is something cheaper and no worse.

Look at which models you can roll linux, such as firmware from Oleg, dd-wrt, and so on. Then you can already configure as you like, at least bang all ports under wan.

Both available options have already been mentioned. I would take Mikrotik. Any of the 951 lines, which will suit the price.

Mikrotik RB951G-2HnD is the best option if you need to save money, however, as practice shows, despite the fact that the piece of iron copes very well with loads and has excellent functionality, but IMHO it is not very reliable, I would not put it in the corporate segment or store the 2nd one with identical settings for every fireman!
What you need for the home. (One minus there is no 5GHz Wi-Fi range)
If you have money, it's better to take CISCO 892W-AGN-E-K9.
