1) We would require a Mikrotik that we can monitor both connections, with alerts etc. (which we can already do)
2) In the example of a failover, we can setup the Mikrotik to be just that.

Here, Comcast has a strong foothold on business connections, but they go down occasionally (like anyone else would), so there is an opportunity there. With Cloud based solutions, VoIP solutions, redundancy for a business would make sense. So the questions would be, what do you charge relative to your normal rate for a backup (failover) connection only? Paul Paul McCall, Pres.
