What benefit do you get from multiple WAN links up simultaneously, if there's no
load-balancing capability?
Thanks for all the effort, and taking the time to respond!!!!

You can assign multiple ip addresses, also from different networks to a
WAN/RED interface. But only if that uplink is in static mode. This was
before known as "Aliases", but before it supported only ip addresses of
one subnet, now you can assign addresses from different subnet's.
With DHCP it is also possible if the DHCP server pushes multiple addresses.
With all other red types you can have only 1 ip address per uplink.

Yes, multiple uplinks are possible, in failover mode and/or up at the
same time. Load balancing is not possible due to a problem with the
current kernel.
