How can I use the speed of two internet connections (LAN + WIFI) at the same time on one computer.?

Question

Is it possible on either XP or VISTA? I have two ISPs, one goes through LAN, second from WIFI. When i connect to both LAN and WIFI on my computer, vista gets internet + intrAnet on one connection, and intrAnet only on the second connection. I cant make it get internet from both of them. please help me out =)

Answer 1

If you only have one DSL/ISP connection then there is no advantage to what you are attempting to do. The bandwidth of your LAN/Wifi is greater than your internet connection. What you are describing is a "bonded" connection. If you have separate internet connections, then there are routers which will bond the 2 connections together to get you higher speed.

Answer 2

Only one internet will work at a time.  There'd be no advantage to running two.

Answer 3

I don't think it's possible. I've heard you can do it on Linux, though.
