I have made that work using a Windows-managed internal modem as a failover. But I have not gotten it to work when the air card is controlled by separate software such as my Sprint/novatel air card.
Also, it usually will not trigger until the ARP cache has aged out and it realizes the old gateway no longer exists.
And getting it to switch back to the wlan when available is problematic. I have not seen a setting to tell the pc how often to check that the wlan is available. After pissing away many hours on a static setup, I don't think you will find a clean solution that will satisfy you.
