Running BGP if you have onlyone provider is not a big ask so the provider
can be asked to do it. About advertising default routes, i was not referring
to BGP. You see here in pakistan you can make the provdier do anything :) so
i dont blame you for not seeing a provider advertise default routes. Come
to pakistan and i will show u ;)
About the router load balancing between two default routes; well i read it
on CCO. I will confirm it after testing it too. Maybe someone else can shed
some light on this one.

Show me where you read that having 2 default routes will automatically be
load balanced. As far as I know that is not the case. It is also rare that
a provider will advertise any routes without using BGP. I have not heard of
any provider advertising default routes. I could be wrong and if so please
tell me where you found this info.
