I have a web server that is on DSL. It's becoming fairly loaded and uses bandwidth. I was wondering would it be possible to make a gateway in the following configuration: --------------------- DSL-0-----|xl0 | | | | Gateway Box | | | ------- DSL-1-----|xl1 xl2|-----| Hub |-----> --------------------- ------- I was wondering if that BSD could perform some kind of load balancing on the two DSL connections. Or if there is some other way of combining two DSL services. I would go to a T-line if I had the money. But I thought I would see if this or some other arrangement is possible. I have already contacted the phone company and my ISP and neither support this kind of thing, but do not see a problem with me trying. Any ideas? ---- Jason P.
