No idea how to do it with XP, sorry. I know with BSD or Linux it should just be a matter of setting up regular MLPPP but pointing both links at the same ethernet interface, thus creating two PPPoE sessions through the same modem.

XP won't let you startup PPPoE twice. I tried this already.

I've heard you can do this with RASPPPoE as opposed to the WinXP PPPoE.

Very Simple:

Get RASPPPoE [ »www.raspppoe.com/ ]
Install it, following their instructions.
When you have the first connection created, test it. Make sure you save the password. Once you confirmed that works, go in the properties and the options tab of the connection. (Disconnect before doing this)

1- Take note of the number being dialed by the connection.
2- Add a checkbox on the 2nd network card you have hooked up to your 2nd line.
3- Check the box that makes all modems dial the same number and enter the number you wrote down in step 1.
4- Change the dial strategy to always dial all devices.

Take off checkmark to prompt username & password.

Set retry dialing to a high number ex. 9999999.
Set retry interval to 3 seconds.

Click ok and test your connection.

It will probably connect but give you a line bundling error. Simply click on accept. Connection icon on lower right in taskbar and open it. Click on the details tab.
You should see on the bottom, a drop down with all your dsl lines and a button that changes between suspend and resume. Find which line failed to bundle and click on resume. If you set the settings the way I set them, it will essentially redial the failed line indefinitely until it connects. At which point you should be in business.

Forgot to add, if you experience bad troughput when doing mlppp on windows, you will probably want to change the mtu of the raspppoe protocol on each of your network adapters to something like 1452. I am still investigating the need for such a low value.

^ Bookmarking this. Awesome steps to try for systems without a server.

two ways

use linux as host OS and use vmware for your stuff

use linux as a host OS and use another port on router for XP to be on network
aka it uses whatever net is availble
the linux box hten would act like a dchp server and dish out a internal ip for the xp box

im sure someone will clean the idea up
and you can get a cheap 500MHZ box as the linux box and setup MLPPP as the other thread said then just dchp out the internal to the xp box.

Well, the good news is that with RASPPPoE, you can have it create multiple modems on the same NIC. So you could effectively follow my instructions and do bonding with a single physical line. That option is in the pppoe protocol on your network adapter. Then you go back to the dialup connection and check off the additional "lines" you added. Should work fine with slightly more overhead... but if it confuses bell's throttling then why not...

I am trying to do this with a single DSL line and it tells me that a computer with my computer name is all ready on the network and tries to send me to control panel and suggests i change my computer name. So I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but for whatever reason this isn't working with a single NIC and single DSL connection.
Has anyone else been able to get this to work in a single nic/dsl scenario?

I just created a regular windows PPPoE connection, following the wizard for PPPoE yadayada...

Then just go to properties as it the screenshot, enable the multilink and thats it.

That's all it required here.
