HI,

For Load Balance with 2 Routers with WAN you can use HSRP Protocol.

Refer link below for HSRP Documents:

Thanx,

i understand, but is there a way to accomplish this without changing the default gateways at half the clients?

Please have 2 HSRP group created ( MHSRP )and one remain active in each WAN router by the help of Priority, and use track command for failover
