Post your router config.
I suggest using MGCP if possible so you don't have to mess with dial-peers.
If you're getting an immediate fast busy then either the CM doesn't see the gateway as online or there is some issue with your route pattern etc.

You can't gauge the complexity of the site soley on the number of people. I've seen places with as many as 3 people for 100 users and other sites with 5 people for 500. It depends on the complexity of the environment. 500 cookie cutter call center desktops locked down to about 3 menu items...
Routerman's config looks good and you may want to add " ip route-cache policy" on the ethernet port to help with the CPU overhead.

256kilobit per second / 8 bits per byte = 32kilobyte per second.
Just to verify, when you say 256k leaving the cloud into the satellite office you do mean you have a DSU at the satellite is programmed for only 4 channels right?
Here's a sample of one of my frame links:
DLCI = 370, DLCI USAGE...
I've used BGP, CEF and MLP to increase bandwidth and I like CEF the best. If you set it up on a per-packet base it will give you darn near 50/50 balancing. You'll have to make sure the ISP puts your 2nd circuit on the same routers as the first, preferrably the same line card.

Let me dig a little deeper. Why did you order a second line from a different ISP? Knowing what your end goal is will help us know what to suggest.
If you ordered it to "double your bandwidth, while providing redundancy" then it's not going to be as easy as you hoped.

Traffic shaping tries to avoid congestion but it won't make your line any faster.

Also, theoretical maximum on a 256k link is 32kB/s so somehow you've managed to double the maxiumum possible transfer...
Depending on what is on the other side you may be able to do a multi-link bundle and then assign that virtual interface as 'ip nat outside' but you'd need to have multi-link support on the remote side etc.
You happen to be the only person I know who wants to NAT and load balance 2 physical...
You're going to want to talk to the Cisco TAC.
I don't think you'll be able to load balance it because of the way NAT works by taking the IP of the serial subnet of the physical interface.

If it's applied under line vty 0 4 it applies to telnet. If you want to block those other services then apply the access list under the ethernet and WAN ports.

You can't advertise 1 address, the minimum is 256. (255.255.255.0 or /24)
If set up correctly you should be able to pull a plug on a T1 and within seconds people on the Internet should be able to get to you through the other side.

I'd do NAT on the firewall before the router.
If you do NAT on the router you'd have different NAT ranges per WAN interface since each interface has it's own subnet plus that would limit your incoming speed to the speed of a single link.
Do you plan on load-balancing your traffic or is this...
Sure as long as his routing config includes a BGP update to his upstream provider and that provider in turn updates their access-list to accept your addresses. Your block has to be at least a /24 (class C) or it will be filtered out by the peering points and thus useless.
You won't have any...
I've dealt with some really stupid ISPs before. Treat them like 2 year olds and ask them to type 'tracert www.whatever.com' and watch it go 20 hops through the internet to your web server and then ask them why that is. They'll call you back in about a week after they call someone who...
If you want your web server accessible from both providers you'll need to make sure your 2nd provider can announce the IPs that are assigned to your web server. Technically this doesn't require you to run BGP but they will need to advertise your IPs via their BGP to the backbone.
You can add...
There is no way to effectively load balance these circuits since the destinations and routes are not equivalent. You load-balance when you have 2 circuits running parallel path to a 2nd router to effectively give you a 3MB circuit. If you want a 3MB circuit you need to order two T1 from the...
Pull the original VIC and if the second one suddenly shows up then you don't have enough DSP support for all the ports. I'm not an expert on this hardware line but you may need an additional DSP or a new "bigger" one.
