[LARTC] split access 2 uplinks

["Alex" <alex@hostingcenter.ro>]

I have setup split access with load balancing on a router that runs squid
but it appears that the second line it almost empty, the router send packets
trough the second line only from time to time, very rarely adn the mrtg
graphs only show something like 10-16kbit used on that line and instead the
primary line is full all the time. I have setup this only for squid, I don't
do any masqurading for the local net, just web acces via squid proxy server.
What's the remedy for this situation? Why does this happen? If that all I
can do then I have no use for such a setup , it doesn't help me at all.

Thanks,
Alex

Here the script that I use:  (192.168.55.1 is another router which actualy
has the second line conected physicaly and on that router I do SNAT for the
squid machine)
