When I first read this question, that was the thought I had . . . two HSRP or VRRP routers (eg, A and B), each with a connection to the provider and each router configured to be the back up for the other. Then set half of the users to use A as their default gateway and set the other half to use B as the default gateway.<br />
<br />
Good luck,<br />

You read it right. &nbsp;One of our remote locations has one provider delivering two ADSL lines that are on the same network and the site wants to use those two lines to load balance on a 2811.<br />
<br />
The one &quot;network&quot; is x.x.x.71 255.255.255.0 with a default gateway of x.x.x.1.<br />
The second &quot;network&quot; is x.x.x.80 255.255.255.0 with a default gateway of x.x.x.1.<br />
<br />
There are no other provider options and they existing provider doesn't seem to be willing to provide an actual seperate network.<br />
<br />
Is it possible to load balance 2 lines on the same network? &nbsp;And if so what would that config look like?<br />
<br />
Thanks

The one "network" is x.x.x.71 255.255.255.0 with a default gateway of x.x.x.1.
The second "network" is x.x.x.80 255.255.255.0 with a default gateway of x.x.x.1.

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
