As we have fibre FTTC (WAN2) & ADSL2+(WAN1) - is it possible to route certain users through the WAN1 and others through the WAN2?
Thanks

Which router do you have?

If the 2820 then yes - look at WAN -> Load-Balance Policy.

For example, you can set an internal IP range, say, 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.50 to use WAN 1 and the remainder (192.168.1.51 to 192.168.1.254) to use WAN2. To enforce this though you would need to be careful about the IP addresses of the machines. If using the Draytek as DHCP then consider using LAN -> Bind IP to MAC which will mean you can force computer A to have that IP and therefore use that WAN port and computer B to have a different IP and therefore use the other WAN port.
