What if one failed? seems to be the topic of the week over at freebsd-questions. short end of the stick is, freebsd as it is today does not do multipath routing, so you cant add a default route to two gateways for round robin usage. however, there was a multipath patch for 4-STABLE some months back, though for the life of me, i don't know where it's archived anymore. check -questions archives for this thread.
