I used the example at
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Load_Bala ... e_Gateways
and it works almost fine.

I have public addresses of 10.1.1.1-.3 and 10.2.2.2 in ethernet1 that go to different providers. 10.1.1.1 is for business, 10.2.2.2 is for residential.
On the local side i have 2 ranges in wireless1 of 192.168.1.0/24 business and 192.168.2.0/24 residential.
Traffic is going the correct way, problem is, I cannot ping,telnet,etc into ether of those public ip addresses.
if i jump on a local computer on same subnet i can winbox into it. but if i try to ping,traceroute from the mikrotik it get no route to host.
customers on each side work just fine however. both sides are masqueraded.
Some business customers need static ips so 10.1.1.2 and 10.1.1.3 are 1:1 natted to 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3
one to one natting pings just fine to the customer.

taking down one side allows me to ping the other because there is only one route again.
What do I need to do to get public side to where i can ping it from anywhere?

confused.....

3rd route for unmarked traffic fixed the problem...
