James,
You have 2 default routes, you should have only one : )
If you have 2 diff ways to get to the INTERNET (2 ISP connections) you need
to do one of 2 things.
1- Change the default gw manually when on of them goes down.
cheap solution but not good for a production environment.
2- Install a router that can do BGP4, expensive (time/dollars) )solution.
If you only have a regular modem, a aDSL or a cable modem, you can forget about
this one. Most ISP will not allow to use BGP4 unless you have a T1 or
higher.
This is a routing question, not a linux security one : )
