Cheap way to bonding ADSL?

mobilexpi · September 11, 2009, 4:26am

Hello,
In my area fiber connection is ultra expensive, and there aren’t good simmetrical internet connections for home users.
Then, my idea is to install Mikrotik on a VPS@imountain and use my existing RB450 (at my home) which I connected to 2 adsl (1024/512K each one) connections and 1 cable (4M/512K) connection, and do bonding (6M/1.5M) …
a)Is it possible?
b)Is there a better idea?

Thanks

no, I believe…

you may try to use Load Balancing (PCC, for example), but maximum speed of each connection won’t be greater than max bandwidth of one of your lines

I know that load balacing only gives me 3*1Mbps, but don’t 3Mbps single downloading.
I was thinking of bonding or VPN bonding.

you should have RouterOS on other side for bonding. maximum - use MLPPP for PPPoE, but your provider should support this ability

My idea is to use a VPS on a datacenter.
Is VPN bonding a better idea?

yeah, something like that. either that one, or two MTs on both side if links. in first case you just lease seller’s hardware for termitating VPNs and bonding them.
