Your friends are a) A little ping daemon ( shell script would suffice read carefully gwping ) also carefully select what to ping, do not ping China or Africa in order to determine your isp status ping something closer like your routers-modem external interface if static ip, if not ping a something further down the line. b) ip route replace default scope global nexthop via 10.0.0.1 dev ethxx weight yy nexthop via 10.0.1.1 weight zz dev eth(X) etc .... c) Determine your static routes ( must go through ISPx for this or that ... like ping ftp.example.org to determine the ISP status if dynamic ip etc etc ) d) to be fancy you can always have a look at ipt_condition .. ( included in xtables addons ) I like this module a lot which I think its misunderstood. e) coffee and lots of meditation ;-) If u feel that u need more help don't hesitate to ask.
