If both DSL lines go to the same ISP it is easy, run PPP on them and setup multilink PPP. The ISP has to do so also. If they are going to different ISP's then you cannot do it with any operating system or device save BGP - the idea is completely -stupid- to put it simply. If you think different, then explain why and I'll shoot every networking scenario you present so full of holes you will think it's swiss cheese. And if you think your going to run BGP I'll shoot that full of holes also. Note that Steven's scenario below is for 2 circuits that both start at a single entity, and both end at a single entity.
