hi all
i have 2 lines 4 M . how i can merge the two line in RB2011 to increase speed of my network to 8M ?

Really all you can do is load sharing/balancing. The only way to get your two links to “equal” 8Mb is to have your ISP setup some type of bonding on their side and you would set it up on your side as well.

hi man , would you mind explaining more, cause i don’t know about network more, please ?

So to have two 4Mb links look like one 8Mb link; you and your ISP would have to enable some type of bonding for the links. i.e. etherchannel, bonding, etc… Different vendors call it different names - sometimes.

Not sure where you live, here in the states it is hard to find an ISP that will do just that for consumers. Not sure if this is for your home or a business. ISPs are generally more willing to do something like that for businesses. It is still a rare thing, at least that I have seen.

You can setup your two 4Mb circuits to be used in a loadbalancing scheme. What will happen is the Router will decide which link to send traffic on depending on your established parameters. i.e. hashing algorithm, policy, etc…


Here is the wiki on loadbalancing links:

The links above should give you enough info to get things sorted out.
