The router - two providers - only one can be up

[Mike Guthrie]

You could monitor this using Nagios BPI.  You can create a business 
process out of these two hosts and then monitor the business process so 
that you only get alerted if both hosts are down.

It could be a little overkill if you only have to do this once, but if 
you have multiple scenarios like this it could come in handy.
