Red face multiple wifi connections


Hello,

I was wondering if it would be possible if I could tie multiple wireless networks into one connection to increase threw put, if you understand what I'm thinking?

Sincerely,
Animeman

If you are meaning multiple wireless connections to one machine, that is what the "N" in the 802 standard is all about - "4 streams" instead of the 1 in the previous standards:

So great minds think alike

You may be interested in "wireless mesh" networks too - kinda neat.

No, after some looking I think virtual wifi cards may be my answer, basically I'm looking for the ability to connect to multiple access points and use them all for perhaps increased bandwidth?? What do you guys think..
