We consider an online routing problem in continuous time, where calls have Poisson arrivals and exponential durations. The first-fit dynamic alternative routing algorithm sequentially selects up to d random two-link routes between the two endpoints of a call, via an intermediate node, and assigns the call to the first route with spare capacity on each link, if there is such a route. The balanced dynamic alternative routing algorithm simultaneously selects d random two-link routes; and the call is accepted on a route minimising the maximum of the loads on its two links, provided neither of these two links is saturated. We determine the capacities needed for these algorithms to route calls successfully, and find that the balanced algorithm requires a much smaller capacity.
