The basic concept is to point the default gateway of all your boxes to your linux box and let the linux box decide where to push the traffic along. If you just have two normal DSL lines you will most probably not be able to do *real* loadbalancing as your ISP would have to help you. What you can do is to push different types of connections along the two routers, but you have to take care the a connection (e.g. a ssh session) is routed along the same path while active. So you may want to set up two routing tables on your linux box (one for each DSL router which becomes default gateway in that table) and set up some iptables rules which decide which traffic should be routed via which routing table (think: DSL router). Have a look at http://lists.netfilter.org/pipermail/netfilter/2007-June/069142.html to get an idea about how to set something like this up (It is not an exact example, just a similar one, but the general idea should become clear) HTH Ciao Max -- Follow the white penguin.
