Rob Flickenger writes "I for one am sick and tired of all of the work it takes to build out wireless community networks. Evidently, so was the Linksys Community Network: a Real Network project for the masses. It's about time somebody did something to bring Wi-Fi to the People."

It would be nice if there was a way to intelligently bond multiple wireless connections into one.

Put 2 (or 3) wireless cards in each of 2 boxes. Configure corresponding cards on each machine to be on nonoverlapping channels and as appropriate for connectivity. Configure channel bonding for your OS.
