Multiple Broadband Connections at Home?

Posted by Cliff on from the hardware-bonding-solutions dept.

Another Web Monkey asks: "I am a typical geek. After working all day on the computer, I come home and get right back on the internet. But unlike my corporate office, I don't have multiple internet connections. I know there are others not happy with a single DSL/Cable connection, but can't afford T1's. Some dual broadband routers are starting to appear on the market. I want to know what others are doing to satisfy, even if temporarily, their cravings for faster connections at home? Has anyone tried these routers, or have another solution?"

    Well my friend, think of a worst case scenario, you live in outback Australia and your lightning fast 56K barely reaches 28.8, that's when billy bob down the road hasn't tractored over the phone line or town fiber link, or your modem hasn't been hit by lightning for like the eigth time :) Still think your DSL/Cable connection bites?

    Could some one please tell me why you need multiple broadband connections? Some of us would be happy with one.
