Hi,

I recently (yesterday) upgraded my home internet connection from BT ADSL
(512k/256k), to NTL Cable(1Mb/256k), for the extra speed available. However,
for the next 30 days I seem to be the owner of two broadband connections in
my home.

I have a linux (Suse 8.0, 2.4.19) box running as the gateway for my home
network, and it's doing masquerading over eth1, which is the connection to
the cable modem. ppp0 is the connection to the ADSL, but is no longer used.

Is there a clever trick I can do, to allow my home net to use the available
bandwidth on both connections? It would be weird, as they would both have a
very different real-world IP... But is it possible?

Simon
