If both DSL lines go to the same ISP it is easy, run PPP on them and setup multilink PPP. The ISP has to do so also. If they are going to different ISP's then you cannot do it with any operating system or device save BGP - the idea is completely -stupid- to put it simply. If you think different

Your assumption is correct. For all practical purposes ISP's can not determine that an customer is using NAT or not. But like all things on the internet, with special custom packet interrogation focused on an particular customer it is possible to technically determine if that customer is using NAT.
