List,
In a branch office, I've got two ADSL lines setup (with two different
ISPs) - one of them are supposed to work as backup line, but since it is
a ADSL flat fee line, I was wondering if there's a way of setting up
some sort of a trunk with FreeBSD, so I can make use of the extra
bandwith.

This has been discussed quite extensively on the list in the past, and if I recall correctly the answer is basically no, unless the lines go to the same ISP and they also configure the lines this way on their end.

There may be various ways to dynamically dink your own routing table to try to balance your outbound traffic, but by the very nature of IP the inbound traffic cannot be regulated without full cooperation of the upstream routers.
