Alex,

What is the traffic pattern? If you are using process switching and most of
the traffic is to a specific address(ex -one HTTP server) you will see most
of the traffic on one T1 a majority of the time because the router is
handling packets per destination basis. Your choice is to run Cisco Express
Forwarding (CEF) per packet load balancing or use multilink PPP is the ISP
supports it.

Hope this helps,
HK
