I have a T1 from UUNet that terminates in a 3640 serial interface configured for frame relay. I recently ordered 4 more T1s and today received from MCI/Verison a 4 port Tasman router to terminate the new circuits. I presume that the new T1s will be bound together yielding a 6Mbps pipe, which our traffic will saturate at times. What's the best way to utilze the old T1 too?

Change the 4port T1 with an 8 port and bond together all 5 lines.

Perhaps you misunderstood me. The 4 ports are on a different router (one that MCI sent me for free) than my 3640. I know that I can add serial ports to my router to get this done. I'm wondering if there is a way to do it without adding an NM-4T, NM-8T or several WICs.
I would think you could have 2 per router and use glbp on the ethernet links.......then use bgp multipath or statics on each router or whatever your're using to connecto your isp.......... This way glbp will load balance across the two routers...........
