Multi-WAN with Single Coax Modem and ISP? (the modem has x2 1GbE LAN ports)...

I have a 1.2Gb-capable coax in modem with 2x1GbE RJ45 LAN ports. The coax is receiving 1Gb Internet from the ISP. Would there be any benefit to bonding the existing Firewalla WAN port with x01 of its LAN ports into a load-balancing type aggregate?

Maybe it makes no sense, a silly question? Simply, I have the x2 1GbE LAN ports on the modem and a couple of unused LAN ports on the Firewalla. Perhaps just a waste of a LAN port with no real benefit?

  Can you check if these two ports can be LAG/Bond together? if they can, then you can set a LAG on WAN (and also LAN if you want). See https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/4409583011091-Link-Aggregation-Groups-LAG
