How do I configure my CISCO 2811 with 2 2 port T1 WICs

I have a brand new CISCO 2811 router, I have configured hostname enable secret, FastEther0/0 and other basic configuration.  

I also have (2) 2 port T1 WICs installed in the router, giving me a total of 4 T1 interfaces.

I have issued the following commands
Card Type T1 0 0
Card Type T1 0 1
And now when I do a sh run I get the following
controller T1 0/0/0
 framing esf
 linecode b8zs

controller T1 0/0/1
 framing esf
 linecode b8zs

controller T1 0/1/0
 framing esf
 linecode b8zs

controller T1 0/1/1
 framing esf
 linecode b8zs

I need these controllers to show up as Serial interfaces so I can create a multilink group and a multilink interface (I know how to do the multilink part).

How can I get my 4 T1 controllers to show up as serial interfaces?

,You should be able to define the interfaces serial 0/0/0, 0/0/1, 0/1/0, 0/1/1 by entering the configuration mode and type interface serial 0/0/0 (by example)

I hope this helps

When I try to run interface serial 0/0/0 I get invalid input at "serial" detected

When I run interface ? serial is not listed as one of the options

What does  'channel-group 0 timeslots 1-24 speed 64' do for me and is this the correct settings for a T1 line?  I just want to make sure as this is new to me.

eb
OK thak you I now have the serial ports

I will leave this question open for a little longer incase I have any more problems

eb
The card you are using is a multiflex trunk card and work as data or as a pri . This defines whether you are creating a data t1 or pri t1.

B
I am doing data t1
OK I now have my serial intervaces 0/0/0:0, 0/0/1:0, 0/1/0:0 and my multilink 12 interface configured according to the instructions from my ISP, however I am unable to ping my default gateway

my router config is below (minus IP addresses and soforth)

I think you sould remove these lines from config:

interface Multilink12

ip address a.b.c.d 255.255.255.252
 no cdp enable
 ppp multilink    <---------remove
 ppp multilink group 12  <-----remove

Post output of "show ip int brief"
Keep the commands that llyquid suggested that you remove. Sorry llyquid, these are required on the multilink interface

ebjers, you have three serial interfaces in the group, but only 2 of the controllers configured with a channel group?
I was wondering about removing those 2 lines, I configured the multilink interface exactly as my ISP directed me to.

That's what I was thinking and that was my next step.
Problem has been solved

It turns out I was using the wrong command for the default gate way

I used;
IP Default-gateway x.x.x.x

I should have used;
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 x.x.x.x

So all seems to be working now, thank you all for the help.
