I don't want to have to keep configuring routers when this simple patchwork is working! Adrenaline: I can access my ftp and all my connections without an issue, the issue is just combining networks. Shaymaa: Through a router you can bound it to load balance, but with certain load balancers you can aggrigate the connections to get more speed, so that works. My Nvidai motherboard seems to be handling it without any issue. popcorn: I know but it does require some work and effort that I am not willing to put into it.

So when someone else starts to download a large file the router will send them over to the other connection. I'd like to know how you'd merge the two connections without the load balancer.

Get a Mac they can handle the abuse and still manage to look and act cool, not to mention the 1GB ethernet and wireless N.

Couldn't you just add a gigabit router to the network and add a static route map on it? That seems easier to manage than having it done through a PC.
