situation goes this way 

R1--------Receive-Only-------R2---------Terrestrial gw
                              |
                              |
                              Transmit-Only 


In the diagram as shown R1 is a router running on
Service Provider side

R2  is a router running on customer side 

customer bought a 2mbps down-link from provider (A
satellite receive-only link)


Customer also has a fiber terrestrial link to internet
via another provider and it is default routed 


The reason why customer needs to buy a satellite
receive-only link from another service provider is
because the customer needs to off-load some return
traffic from the internet which has been congesting on
the terrestrial g/w 



Problem :

After implementing the Satellite receive-only link
from the second provider . I run BGP for the
satellite-link using the terrestrial as the
transmit-path for TCP connection. 


customer has only one block of Class C Address and
when I advertise the whole class C over the satellite
link it does off-load the terrestrial link for the
return path but this time the satellite link get
congested . I could not do a AS-PATH prepend as they
are using Private-As and the provider is stripping
private-as at their end


My question is how can I solve this problem of
load-balancing by introducing as shown in the diagram
another satellite link from the same provider with
only a transmit path ?
