Typically, the radio will use the access point with the strongest
signal/quality. However, in the case of a tie or the signal
strength/quality changes the radio may switch AP's often. This can
cause performance degradation. Depending on the radio, settings can be
made to minimize the behavior.

and both are pointing to 2 different ISPs and 2 different wireless
routers.

Generally speaking, you can only be connected to one wireless
router at a time (wirelessly, that is).

Or do both wireless routers have the same SSID & password?
