So all traffic to those addresses should go via dsl0 ?  I think the 41
routes would be:  

41.0.0.0.0/11   (41.0.0.0 - 41.31.255.255)
41.32.0.0.0/11  (41.32.0.0 - 41.63.255.255)
41.64.0.0.0/11  (41.64.0.0 - 41.95.255.255)
41.96.0.0/16    (41.96.0.0 - 41.96.255.255)

It's a rough guess, I'm no expert at subnet masks.

Assuming your DSL links are up all the time, you could just make them
static routes.  If not, I think you need something
like /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-dslX.route, which will establish the
routes when the interface is available.
