Ininterrupted connection

Hi,

I want to maintain a connection between a client and a server 'eternally'
through the Internet.

The problem is that, sometimes, the connection may fail (the ADSL or Cable
doesn't work, whatever) and I want to continue having connection to the
server.

What I thought at first was to have two possible connections (two ADSL, one
Cable and another ADSL, or whatever) and, in case that one fails, try
through the other one.

But, to do that, I need to change the gateway of the operating system. Can
that be done in Delphi?

Another thing I thought was to have two net cards, each one going through
different gateways, so I could choose which card to use each time.

Is any of these ideas correct or possible? Is any other better solution??

Thanks!

Arnau.
