This shouldn't be that hard to do.
I've seen quite a few scripts that check if your xDSL connection is
up and try to start it if it isn't.

Setup a cron job that does the following every 5 mins:

If you're using the primary link:
        ping the nearest distant IP (your ISP's DNS server is a good choice).
        if the ping fails, launch the modem connection.
If you're using the secondary link:
        test to see if you can bring the primary link back up
        if you can, close the modem connection.
