Some suggestions.
Make sure the ISDN link works first by not placing
backup interface commands in the config. Just ping the
remote dialer interface IP and see if it is succesful.
If its not theres a config issue. Once you know the
dialer connection works then place the backup
interface command on one side only. If you place it on
both sides then the receiving side will be in standby
mode and not accept a call.
