Broadband forum: Using two ISP connections simultaneously to add bandwidth

and can be a PITA to configure. In your case it'll never work as bonding must be used to combine/bond two like sources such as two DSL lines. Bonding wired and wireless will never work as they both must be connected to the same source at each end.

Sorry.

I have heard of doing this using an external router something like Linksys or XRoads Networks will balance sesions, the Edge2WAN will also actually bond the links for faster wen downloads. I don't see how you can do this from within Windows, especially the bonding...

Hi Jacinto,

I've been doing some research and you actually can combine multiple Internet lines (eg including a cable modem) to make a faster and more reliable one. The Internet lines can be different technologies and can come from different providers, and it is not necessary to have special software (e.g. MLPPP) or hardware at the provider premises - they don't even have to know you are bonding their line to another. I have seen this done at a trade show recently at layer 4.

For example, you could bond together four ADSL lines at 6Mbps down/ 768k up to create a 24Mbps down/ 3Mbps up connection, even for a single file transfer or a streaming video source.

I'm sure if you google search for "broadband bonding" you'll find what you're looking for.

Hope this helps your search.
