Ah... Yes it would... In the same way that it's useful having IBM host
the Olympics website at multiple locations around the globe. They all
have different IP's... The way it works is by using a DNS server that
will return more than one address... RR is the easiest method (You could
build something smarter & test the response from the server to the
client down both paths & use the quickest/ and/or least loaded) and have
50% of the requests come into one and 50% of the requests come into the
other.... You also need to do advance routing, so that traffic to ppp0
always goies out ppp0 and traffic to ppp1 always goes out ppp1 as well.
Not impossible. But does depend on you trying to speed up MULTIPLE
connections at once, and not just have a single big pipe for single
connection speed...
(I've skipped some assumptions as well probably, since I don't know 100%
what you're doing over the links).
