I have 3 network adapters and 3 net's to connect to, how can I connect to all and share the bandwidth?

Question

Basically I want to have all three networks, two are wireless from separate providers in the same area, and the third is wired, also from a different source, provide bandwidth to an individual task, such as downloading files with Orbit Downloader. What's happening right now, is that the computer gets confused and hops from one adapter to the next. One connection is capped at 50kbps and the other two are around 140 each. I would like to get it setup to where I get the combined throughput instead of one at a time achieving a total of around 330kbps.

Answer 1

turn on Bridging

If you have a local area network (two or more computers connected in a network) with one computer connected to the Internet (via a modem, using a cable, etc.), it may be useful to make the connection accessible to the other computers on the network by installing a software program that will serve as a proxy server, that is, that will give the network's computers access by proxy, by redirecting data packets.

However, the more users there are, the lower the bandwidth for each of them will be, since the users will share the bandwidth with each other. For example, if 8 people are connected to an ADSL connection at 512 Kb/s, only 64 kb/s will remain per person, or 6 or 7 kB/s per person.

There are a variety of software programs that make it possible to carry out this function, yet Window 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP and higher versions natively offer such a function.

We will now assume that the connection is already configured on the PC equipped with Internet access. This computer (PC no.1) will play the role of server (proxy) whereas the other network computers will be clients (PC no. 2, 3 and 4, etc.).

We will choose the address 192.168.0.1 for PC no. 1 that has the Internet connection (the others will respectively take the IP addresses 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4, etc.).

To authorize Internet connection sharing on the host (the computer with an Internet connection), simply right-click "My network places" on the desktop, then choose Properties in the menu. Right-click your connection's icon, then choose Properties. Then click the Advanced tab and check the box Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection as well as the other two boxes. Then validate by clicking OK and close the Network connection window.

The only other way is to use a proxy server software.

You can't combine them. Unless you can make all three use the same PUBLIC IP!  The only way to combine connections is with a bonded line service supplied by the ISP's.  

The best you can do is load balance. Just find a good load balancing program or router to use. Your connections can be load balanced and provide redundancy but you really can not (with whats available today) combine the outputs.
