The problem with 'bonding' two DSL lines as you've done with the ethernet ports is that it is heavily dependant upon your ISP. and it's unlikely that an ISP would offer this as a consumer service (I could be wrong however) What some people do however is put things like a routing policy in place which can direct some traffic over one link and some over a second link in order to distribute load. the problem with this is its never really 100%, you'd need to work out what the traffic habits of the people using the links are and then manually try and balance the load based on things like protocol and destination/source IP addresses. If you want to persue this then try looking for 'policy routing howto' with google, a quick howto for source based routing can be seen at.. http://www.compendium.com.ar/policy-routing.txt If you want to persue DSL link bonding, call your ISP and ask about setting up multilink PPP over DSL and find out if they do it. Of note, you cannot do link bonding with links terminating at two different ISPs, both DSL circuits would need to be to the same ISP. (just a FYI) -- Steve.
