thanks for the idea,
but will not work, i always want A to use that static to firewall, i just
want A to fail over if the dsl on the far far side of that fireall drops,
in other words, if the dsl drops, A switch to B
how can i do this tweak, without changing the FW config ?

thanks

  It sounds like you need Router A to recognize when it should no
  longer use
  it's static default route, remove it, and then use the route towards
  B. You
  can create an SLA Tracker and tie it to the route. One thing you
  would watch
  out for is that whatever you track through the firewall is not
  reachable
  through Router B, otherwise the tracker would pass and the route
  would come
  up again. Although, maybe you could tweak the tracker to
  differentiate...Any
  other ideas?
