How to automatically switch between two Internet connections to connect to the strongest network? (multihoming)

Post by Brahim Salem »

I have two flaky Internet connections (WIFI + 3G). If one of them goes down, I have to manually switch to the other connection. I would prefer to automatically switch to the other Internet connection whenever the active connection goes down? (multihoming)
