Multi-routed connection?
I'm tired of my DSL line constantly dying on me and having really sucky bandwith (150kb/s down, 38kb/s up) and I was wondering if there was a way to take 2 modems (on 2 separate phone lines) to be routed into individual routers and have those routers linked and connected to the network for
-Twice the bandwith -Double the internet reliability Let me know if this is possible, and how so. Thanks :D |

Re: Multi-routed connection?
What you really want is a dual-WAN router. http://www.speedguide.net/broadband-list.php?cat=30

Re: Multi-routed connection?
Yep, that's how it works. Note that for a single thread, say a single download from one site, you may not experience any speed increase. However, for multiple connections, the load will be spread between the two connections.

Re: Multi-routed connection?
Alright, well what I'm trying to do is get a higher upload rate or at least a faster connection for anyone to connect to my server. I'm running a server for FSHost and a 310kbps upload rate doesn't do too well...If i did this, would it reduce any lag? And another thing...would it give me two separate IP's if I got two modems? Would that be an issue?

Re: Multi-routed connection?
I don't think you're going to solve the issue of a single connection with dual ISP accounts. You can have more connections, but any single connection will be serviced by a single modem.
