Re: What...the...hell? i give a crap about upload speeds. for those that qualify for their 7m / 934k, just order two, its almost the same price. i would never pay more to get a slower upload. more and more people need faster uploads thanks to cheap web hosting, digital cameras, slingbox, etc. |

All you'll be doing is getting 2 934k uploads and 2 7m downloads.. Its not like it can be combined bandwidth for one download/upload.

Actually, you can. There are number of linux tools that allow you to line bond two connections and make them "one". |
|
| You can't bond them unless both ends create a multilink. What you are talking about ends up being a load balanced connection. |

No, that is load balancing...

If your 1337 you can use a VPN that splits traffic over 2 IPs, and recombines the data at the VPN server where it goes out to the internet as 1 IP. |

I recently had a customer tell me that at his house he could see 6 wireless networks with 6Mb Comcast connections. He said he had bonded them together to get a "T3" speed. I looked at him and said "Riiiiigggghhhtttt" and went back to what I was doing. |

When I was living in Pullman there were wireless WEP connections everywhere.
I used aircrack-ng to crack about 10 of them, then I bought ANOTHER wireless USB lan card which used the rt61 chipset.
I then configured my Linux kernel running SUSE 10.2 with iptables and the proper modules, which was hard to do because most of the modules were out dated and there was no new documentation on them.
I set up my main chain to switch interfaces every 2 connections.
After all of the kernel stuff was setup, i then setup firefox to use pipeling which would utilize both connections.
THEN, the fun part  I used my usenet client to max out both connections...
Now this took me about a week on top of a full time job, and it wasn't easy. But I did manage to combine the connections together and it worked only with limited protocols that supported multiple connections.
The point of my story, its definitely possible, but not in the way most people realize. |
