Dial-Up Connection Link Aggregation


Hi,
We have very poor connectivity in our office. We have a satellite connection, but it is usually either very slow or simply does not work. We also have several phone lines. I was wondering if the following setup is doable. I want to connect 2 modems to a machine running linux and then bind them and set the machine as a gateway/router for the rest of our network. Can I bond them so that I achieve link aggregation over the 2 modems? Thanks for your help.

Yes, you can do this, but the other end (ISP or remote site) must agree to bond the two modem lines also.

Thanks for your input centauri. Is there any way to get it working without support from my ISP?
