You might check to see if your ISP can bond the DSL lines together. It should be possible on ADSL lines with the right equipment and an ISP that will work with you.

I don't really care about the 24mbps I more need the ability to handle more users, like I want to put 100 users on 2 ADSLs (or lets say 200 on 1x T1 + 1x ADSL) My DSLs goes 6Mbps each already, so I think that wouldn't be too crapy for my users. But if I can load and balance it would be even better :-) PS: I wonder, back in the days of 56k we used to tandem 2 modem together with some app, and it gave us like 100kbps -----Original Message----- From: Michael Brown [mailto:knightmb at knightmb dot dyndns dot org] Sent: Tuesday, October 03, 2006 2:35 PM To: Monowall Support List Subject: Re: [m0n0wall] multiple WAN lines Using m0n0wall only, no. If the DSL provider supports this via shared gateway on the same IP range. I'm doing this with m0n0wall and my DSL connections to get 3.0 Mbps (1.5 Mbps each) but you don't really get combined bandwidth, what you get is two IP addresses on the same WAN interface that you can firewall/NAT to wherever you like. You won't get combined bandwidth when downloading for example. You'll need a switch to plug to all 4 Ethernet connections from the DSL modems into, then one Ethernet into the m0n0wall, then using Proxy ARP entries in m0n0wall to pick up the 4 IP addresses. You still need to reserve one IP address as the main WAN of m0n0wall as well, so really just 3 Proxy ARP entries for the other IP address. They have to be static IP, this won't work on 4 DHCP assigned DSL modems with m0n0wall. You won't get 24 Mbps for a download, but you'll have 4 "channels" of bandwidth to use, so you can dedicate one for web servers, e-mail, personal web surfing, etc. Otherwise, you'll have to look at another firewall software package.
