Great question and asked by many over the years in an attempt to
aggregate bandwidth or provide Internet access redundancy.
Look at http://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/misc/vixie/ifdefault/
for a solution that involves patches to the BSDI o/s for one
approach.
Search on "multihoming without BGP" for other approaches using
the packet filter facility on NetBSD; this approach may also
be possible on OpenBSD but I have not found any references to
it being done.
Evidently Win32 has various facilities for multiple default routes
when multihomed...
Evidently certain linux kernels handle multiple default routes
by doing some round-robin load balancing across the interfaces, but
I have no experience with this; there is also some discussion about
using virtual interfaces in linux.
If you do this, please report back with your solution and observations.
I suspect that you may try this using multiple interfaces on a
Windows PC.
