| [Windows] Combine bandwith of two NICs on windows 7 Hi all,
Im attending college and living in the dorms. The university has caped the bandwith to every network device at 250kb/s, very slow. I would like to beable to setup my laptop to use both the wifi and the ethernet as to doubble my bandwith.
How can I go about this? |

| Best solution is a dual-WAN router. Try dual-WAN Tomato or pfsense.

I agree. A dual wan router would probably be your best option. Its pretty much plug and go. At the same time, you are interested in something that uses WiFi as well as ethernet. I am assuming you only have one ethernet plug?
Most dual wan routers have 2 ethernet plugs for the purpose of using both connections. Not an ethernet and a wi-fi. I don't know if Pfsense will use a wifi connection with an ethernet one. Never tried it.

Which version of Win7 are you on? WinXP Pro had an option to bridge the connections
which MAY help you out, though I doubt it.
Otherwise, without knowing HOW the University configured their bandwidth capping --
via IP address, MAC address, protocol, etc. -- it's just wild speculation.

Where will you live once expelled from the dorm and college?
