Q: How to create a redundant failover ISP network using 2 Airport Extreme
Hello friends,
I have 2 different ISP leased lines bound to my 2 Airport Extreme. Was curious to know if these 2 AEs can be interconnected somehow to create a failover ISP network. Traffic from users connected to AE 1 would be transparently diverted to AE 2 and vice-versa, if corresponding ISP goes down. When the ISP comes up they will be returned back to their primary AE.
Thank you.

...I would like to know if we can configure AE 1 to detect the ISP connected to it has gone down temporarily and so push the inbound traffic coming to it from devices connected to it to AE 2...
Basically, no. The AirPort base stations neither have a means to configure this nor have the functionality to do so.
