Re: Dual Cable for home
said by DonLibes  :
If true, then how would two cable modems ever help - even in the two-file-transfer scenario. If the router is so stupid as to choose and stay with one route, won't the 2nd cable modem just remain idle? The router cannot know what's going on at the application level.
JD would best answer that question. But I assume that these routers start one transfer on one WAN port, then when a second transfer is requested the router automatically selects the second WAN port.
Here is a pretty good review on how these routers work, »www.amdpower.com/sections.php4?o···rtid=103. |

| Forgive me but what do you need all that speed for? I have 10 computers on my network and the only thing I desire is more U/L speed but not so bad that I would go dual. The only reason I'd ever consider dual is for redundancy for when one connection is down.
BTW: if you need even more speed for an aditional $10 a month per account you can get 4300/386. |
