Are the links to the same provider? Does the provider(s) use Telstra L3, L2, or other? Is the router doing NAT outbound to these links? You can achieve simple outbound load balancing by simply putting an equal default route to each interface, but I suspect that isn't what you want. You can also be a bit more consistent by routing 0.0.0.0/1 out of one link and 128.0.0.0/1 out the other. To get some sort of inbound load balancing with an indifferent upstream, you're probably going to need NAT or some kind of proxy device.
