hi jonny,

no you dont need a specific router to do that :)
as long as your ISP link is capable for doing so - ie. the same PPP account etc.
it will not work if you have 2 different links.

the simplest way to do is to put the linux router behind 2 modems in route-mode, so that the linux router can have an ethernet-based link (just for simplicity), and do the link aggregation/bonding.

Code:

modem1 --- |

          linux --> doing ethernet-based port aggregation

modem2 --- |
