Dear Brent,
An alternative solution: Assuming web traffic Assuming each provider has a web proxy server
1. Make sure traffic to each provider uses their particular link (traceroute). 2. Configure a "squid" proxy server with two parents, one at each provider. 3. Set up your local web browsers to use your proxy server.
I suspect the official way may involve routing with BGP(?), and I doubt if your ISP's will allow that. Please keep me informed because I'll be treading down this path when DSL comes to the UK.
