How to sum two or three wireless link?

Hi,

It's possible to sum two radio links for increase the bandwidth?
I need to transport a 20 Mbit/sec DSL connection to about 20 Km of distance... for obtain a great, stable and redundant wireless link, I've thought to activate two or three radio link and sum it. It's possible? If yes, how I can make it?

Thank You

Paolo

Yes, you can use bonding for that!
Check the wiki, there some examples, also read about bonding on the manual.

Best regards

Bonding provides failover, to provide a proper failover you should specify 'link-monitoring' and one of the method.
It is described in wiki and as well in bonding documentation.

if you get this working reliably, please post on here.. I've tried a few times and never had a system that performed any better, or even as good, as just a single link. I am now using ECMP for failover, and to get at least partial bonding of the links.
