Bonding has to be supported by both ends (ISP end and your end; making 1 Link 
with 2 or more physical links). However pfSense is offering loadbalancing to 
ultilize more than one WAN link. A single connection can't make use of the sum 
of all interfaces bandwidth this way as one connection can only use one link 
but a bunch of connections (even from the same host) together can use all the 
links and thus all the bandwidth of all the links. Another option is policy 
based routing like sending traffic type a via WANa and type b via WANb. 
Balancing and policy based routing can be used at the same time.
