I'd try/prefer the following

           +-------------+
           |             |
           |             +-----router--- First Provider
           |    FW       |
  Inside---+             |
           | w/ NAT      |
           |             +-----router--- Second Provider
           |             |
           +-------------+

if the router or first provider goes down... i can still get
in and out thru the 2nd provider..

if i have "autonomous"(?) ip#... both ISPs can route incoming
and outgoing traffic

thanx
