It will only be of use if your ISP supports bonding.

You also of course may need 2 x LLU DSL lines. Ordinary "bitstream" is unlikely to be supported. Try Magnet, Digiweb.

If your ISP supports Bonding you can use two ordinary DSL modems (on two lines in Bridged mode, i.e. Routers turned off) and any suitable hardware with at least 3 ethernet ports running Linux and/or OpenWRT to implement it.

iv been looking at a few routers with the capability i was kind of hoping someone had used one of them and could give me their opinion on how good or bad it was i.e. reliability and build quality.

i know whats required to make it work i was hoping for a view point on the hardware as opposed to whats required to make the hardware work

thanks in advance
