Point-to-Point T-1

I'm trying to configure a point-to-point t1 connection between two Nortel ARN routers. The t1 is up, but I need help configuring the routes between sites.

Configuration:

Site 1:

serial ip = 10.200.204.1
ethernet ip = 10.10.0.245

Site 2:

serial ip = 10.200.204.2
ethernet ip = 10.20.0.245

I've configured default routes on both routers:

0.0.0.0/0 next hop = 10.200.204.2 (site 1)
0.0.0.0/0 next hop = 10.200.204.1 (site 2)

I've configured various static routes on the ethernet side, but I continue to get "dest. host unreachable" errors.

Basically, I'm trying to setup a link to the 10.10.0.0 network from site 2. I'm thinking configuring separate network space (10.20.0.0) is best, but I'm not sure.

I appreciate any help.
 
Quick question to you. Is the Ethernet on both sides "up" by having link? They will not be pingable if the interface isn't up. Have you looked at the routing tables on both to see if they both see all three routes?
 
What does your routing table look like?

(from within BCC issue "show ip route")

Cheers!
 
After a little more research, I got this to work by setting more specific static routes. Thanks for the feedback.
