goto the advanced gonfig and there it is dmz demilitarized zone. turn that on, that the router can exchange data between the two wires so if one goes down the data is emmediately jumped to the other. like tron XD. otherwise it does it automatically? driver updates are a must.|||If your router will run dd-wrt firmware from http://dd-wrt.com I'm pretty sure you can do load-balancing with the dd-wrt firmware. Otherwise you could just configure the Ubuntu router to handle it, plus the firewall duties that you are currently doing with the linksys router and get rid of the linksys all together.
