I asked the group some time ago about some problems we were seeing with MLPPP on our Cisco 7513s.

ip route X.X.X.X 255.255.255.252 Serial1/0/0/13:0 ip route X.X.X.X 255.255.255.252 Serial2/1/0/14:0
The only problem that we ran into was that we had to use the Serial designator of the interface in our route statement otherwise it will not work (or at least it did not for us).
Since converting our customers (all MLPPP customers) to ip load-sharing per-packet - we have had no further problems.
FWIW I have also observed that it is necessary to specify the interface when doing per-packet load balancing across multiple PVCs, e.g. as when doing load balancing across multiple DSL circuits. I believe I mentioned this a while ago, but in a thread on a different topic. That solution was the result of grasping at straws: it seems that the router ought to be able to intuit the interface from the target address, but apparently can not. mm
