To do true load balancing, upstream and downstream, you have to be able to announce yourself via BGP. As an end-user/customer that just ain't gonna happen.
That's basically the conclusion I came to. I ended up setting up a Freesco router using some old parts and have the DSL line going into that, while the cable is going into the Symantec VPN router. Our main linux server is doing the dhcp serving for this setup. Anyway, this gives us manual load balancing by switching between dhcp or manual through the Freesco as needed. BTW, what's BGP?
