Hi,
I was wondering if there is any Internet Bandwidth aggregator available for linux? Something that combines the bandwidth of more than one internet connections.

I am using F7 and have two 115 Kbps connections....I was wondering if I can aggregate them to be used as one 256 Kbps connection?

Thanks and regards,
Vineet

I haven't tried it, but it's called "Ethernet Bonding". A quick google yielded this recent article.

To achieve Loadbalancing the other end must know that your links belong together. So this is for example true with leased lines between two datacenters.
