Here is my question. I have a cataylsy 5000 connected to 2 3620 routers configured as bridges performing no routing functions. These 2 bridges are connected accross fractional DS3's to 2 other 3620 routers configured as bridges. These bridges are connected to a catalyst 3500 switch on the other side. Can I use fast etherchannel to combine the bandwidth from teh 2 DS3's.

It does not appear that the router ethernet interfaces support ether channel. Check the hardware restrictions on configuring E.C.

I would be enabling fast etherchannel at the switch level, not the router. Again remember the routers are only functioning as bridges.
