.... or you can use two ordinary single WAN routers. In that case the
routers would each need a different LAN network address. I have DSL and
cable on my network with this very setup.

If they're coming in on two different lines, why not ?

Same answer - two different lines aren't going to affect each other.

Same answer. You could shop for a dual WAN router that would allow
you to use both lines on the same home LAN - assuming you have broadband
on both lines rather than phone on one and BB on the other. |

Why would anything coming in on a TV cable, affect something coming in via
phone line? They're two entirely different systems. |

Your need a hub or switch. Some routers have built-in switches and that may
suffice.
Connect all computers and LAN side of routers to the hub or switch. Each
router is assigned a different LAN side IP address.
In Windows (what I know, different instructions may hold for different OS),
set the gateway address to one of the router IP addresses. That computer
will use the router and what it is connected to. Another computer may be
set to a different gateway address.
Suppose the connection on one of the services goes out or becomes less
usable? Switch the gateway address inside the computer software and you are
now going out on a different connection. Perhaps there is a way for two
gateway addresses to be entered and let the operating system choose or split
the load. I don't know and haven't tried.
