That is only for traffic control, that is in the forward chain. The mark
of 10 or 20 relates to routing and a provider how??

the routing rules:

0:      from all lookup local
10001:  from all fwmark 0x1 lookup IINET
10002:  from all fwmark 0x2 lookup TELSTRA
10202:  from all fwmark 0xca lookup squid
20256:  from 172.16.3.2 lookup IINET
20512:  from 172.16.4.2 lookup TELSTRA
32766:  from all lookup main
32767:  from all lookup default

When using the tcrules file to override balancing to use only one isp,
you should be using the providers' mark here (in the tcpre chain, that
is part of the prerouting chain) to direct traffic into the providers'
routing table to pick your preferred isp. You'll need to use something like:

1:P    $LAN_NETWORK  $ANY_IP tcp   ssh

1 = mark of your "preferred" provider
P = use mark in prerouting chain

Hope that is your fix..
