QUestion about duel internet

[elec999]

Is it possible
lets say i have a cable line and a dsl line
combine them together
so if they both do 150k download
together i can get 300k?

thanx

it is possible technically.....

this has been asked and someone did post the site. But its complicated as you will have two different ip address from both providers and some how combine them to work together.

ill see if i can find the link

why not just upgrade your service package?

You need a dual WAN router. Here's a cost-conscious one:

There are some far more expensive ones out there, but I'm interested in this one myself. Nexland had a good one, but Symantec acquired them and I can find nothing on their website about it.

anyway to do it with linux or windows?

[sm8000]

In Windows (XP, maybe 2000 as well) if you have two nics and they are each connected to a modem, then you can either multilink or else bridge the connections. I think the former is the correct choice. Should be in network properties once all of the equipment is installed.

I like the idea of doubling my bandwidth!

We have two 56krap ISP accounts, I could possibly double my already limited bandwidth

I am soon going to start working on a download manager program that supports more than one Internet connection, so it'd be perfect for this

cool
make sure you can get two ips
or have an options to use only one
