I'm not sure if I've asked this here before, but I'm going to ask again. Does Linux, and more specifically SuSE, support shotgunning modems? What I mean is, if I've got two or more modems installed on a machine, and an equal number of phone lines to connect them to, can I set up SuSE to use all of the modems bandwidth as one larger pipe?
Sure this is called MultiPPP, under /usr/src/linux/Documents/README.eql also check out (I think, not at my machine right now, but I know it is under the source tree) http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/LG/issue36/tag/1.html http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/LG/issue39/tag/10.html The other end of your connection (Your ISP) has to support MPPP in their modem racks (Livingston Portmaster 2e supports it and I think USR Total Control supports it, not sure about any others). Also most ISP will try and get your to signup for a second account (Make sure you read your service agreement), "hogging" more than one modem per user name at a time is looked down on by many ISPs.
Can this be done,
This can be done, even though I have never did it personally.
or am I crazy?
I can not prove or disprove your sanity. Jack
