[squid-users] Squid - Dual WAN Links

I have two squid proxy servers. I use a PAC script to assign the proxy servers with one being a primary and one being a failover. This works great but I would like to achieve a similar configuration with the access to the WAN links from proxy servers. I have two Wan DSL Links and two dsl routers. I'm open to changing this configuration but I'd like to avoid a dual wan router as this would mean no redundancy if the router fails.

At current I have no requirement for load balancing although in future I may assign bandwidth sensitive applications to the failover. I could probably write a script to check the wan links and the routers which could then change the network settings and restart if required but this seems a rather inelegant solution. Is there a way of doing this with squid or has anyone got any better ideas?

Regards
