(think of the way you would do ip routing for parallel connections if you could not do ethercnannel but had multiple ethernet connections). You can also just use good routing protocol that can take care of load-balancing of traffic across parallel paths such as OSPF or IEGRP or possibly do MPLS (although it is probably an overkill). Now the question would be which device on the user side can be used for terminating multiple dsl lines. From cisco you could use 2600 or 3600 router with several DSL WIC cards, see http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps221/products_data_sheet09186a0080088713.html) Other manufactures may well have their own boxes and cards that do the same. You can (I probabl would...) try to build your own box with linux or bsd as both support range of dsl cards. -- William Leibzon Elan Networks [email protected]
