Hi Varun,

I *believe* its not possible as the 24 hours online won't allow you to
do so. If by any chance you manage to introduce a proxy at your client
end, it should be a transparent one and that is impossible with a single
LAN card.

Subject: [ilugd] Doubling Download Speed

hey people
i have a 24 online cable connection at my place. the cable-waalah has
capped
the speed at 32kbps. i have a friend who also has subscribed to the same
cable-waalah and are being serviced by the same hub(he lives some 25 ft
from
my place). his computer is usually on the whole day and is used to check
the
mail only and/or to type some office related documents. so his internet
connection is just there to prevent misuse of the dial-up connection.
and
since i am usually downloading something or the other :D i was wondering
if
i can double my speed by installing a proxy server s/w at his place and
routing half of my internet traffic thru his comp thereby doubling my
effective speed. I won't be able to install more LAN card on his
machine.
and he uses win98 and won't be able to change the s/w at his place. i
use
RHL9.0.
any pointers????
affly
Varun Anand
