Basics

  • Essentially blending two or more networks to increase bandwith and/or add redundancy
  • Also known as "Network Bonding"
  • Great for turning slow speed internet to high speed, and for redundany for critical applications
  • Main Con is More than Double the Cost, due to equipment needed, and having to have two cables etc
  • Can be done with two of the same source (Two DSL/Coaxial/Fiber Network/Cellulat/Satellite Connects) or two different types (Most common is some landline, and cellular/satellite for redundancy)
