I think there is better ways to accomplish what you want to do. Tend to bring in the bad with the good when bonding and wireless has plenty bad to bring in.

I am concerned about one of the links having an issue where it stays linked, but stops passing traffic. Which bonding driver would be best suited to providing maximum availability? Bonded capacity is not required, but the links aren't the same speed; so I'd want to prefer the faster link if non-aggregated capacity is required. It seems like any method which only supports MII monitoring is out, because the MII link wouldn't drop (it's Ethernet to the radio); which rules out 802.11ad, active-backup, and balance-tlb. broadcast seems like it would be limited to the slower link, rather than the faster link. balance-rr states that it requires equal bandwidth links. This appears to only leave balance-xor and balance-alb. It seems like balance-alb is most likely the best choice. I am also unclear on how the ARP availability mechanism judges a port to be available. I think that I would want to assign a unique probing address to each port on each end of each router, and have those IP addresses (one per port) set in the arp-ip-targets list? This should allow the router to know which specific ports work, and which don't?
