Thanks for your very fast reply

We have 2 Cisco 2950 switch, I can do this but if R1 or R2 is down all
connected pc will be offline, and I tried to make 2 HSRP groups each group
will serve 25 users, and I make track for the interface that connected to the
ADSL routers (((by the way the DSL routers does not support the dynamic
routing protocols so I cannot use the commands like "track Y ip route
x.x.x.x/24 reachability" and standby 1 track Y decrement 20" and if the ADSL
line is down for the WAN interface my HSRP system will not realize that any of
the DSL lines are down.

Hi Mahmoud,

What kind of switch do you have in place before the routers? Could you set the
default gateway for 25 users to R1 and the remaining 25 to R2?

Hi Experts

How can I make load balancing between two ADSL lines,

I have 2 DSL line each line have 4 Mbps speed, each line connected on Cisco
2600 router ((IOS (tm) C2600 Software (C2600-IPBASE-M), Version 12.3(6e),
RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)) the topology is:

        SP #1 SP#2

           | |

           | |

           R1 R2

           | |

           | |

           \ /

            \ /

             \ /

                SW1

           ------------------

             LAN (50 Users)

These two routers does not support GLBP , and if I use HSRP one line will be
active and the other will be in standby till the main line down (I cannot
share my routes in SP routing table, I use static route on both routers), how
can make the two lines work simultaneously?

Thanks in advance
