If both connections terminate to you setup asymetric routing using different
routes on each end. I've done it before (Not on purpose - was waiting for
someone to delete some static routes). Basically on the customer end have
the default route set to the OR and have the OR set to send to the other
side of the ISDN link. Have your side of the network set to route all
traffic TO the customer over the fater link. The end result is that the
data from the customer to you goes out one link and the data from you to
them goes across another.
