        You can do one of two things:

        One:

        Turn off ip route-cache on the Serial interfaces. This will
cause you to not cache the routes, and do a round-robin on the
routes. This is not very efficent.

        Two:

        Upgrade router software to 12.0, and run CEF on the 2500's
(I would actually recommend using the 2600's to be honest), and you
can do "ip load-sharing per-packet" on the serial interfaces.
