So you have to write a daemon to ping the remote gateway, and if ping 
fails, the daemon will remove that nexthop from the multipath route. The 
dead gateway detection patch can't help you in this case.
That's why I created this project, download and run it, and everything 
solved, it's lack of documentation, so you're welcome to write it in the 
Wiki.
