You'd need either a funky router that has support for a backup route, or a firewall that checks the primary route every short_interval, and switches to the backup route as necessary.
You should probably ask your primary ISP whats their recommended plan - and also think about your service levels and budget. As for your IP staying the same - that would only be possible if you have your own, or you're using a static supplied by the ISP.
