Hi all,

This is my first post to "expert" which I don't consider myself to be.

However I suspect that the question I am about to ask may be.

I have a permananet dialup account with a static IP address...

and I have an ADSL "dynamically assigned" connection...

I want to have them both connected on the same machine, using the dial-up's
IP address, and use the server for hosting httpd and mail, but I want to
make use of the better bandwidth of the ADSL connection. (1500k/256k)

And have the dial-up's connection for backup,, (ie if the ADSL connection
drops out, (as it does sometimes))

Has anyone done this? is it even possible?  I think it is theriotically
possible, but I have little idea how to impliment it, I imagine I have to
set it up to route incoming connections out the ADSL connection.

Can anyone provide any tips?

In Australia, ADSL is cheap but only Dynamically assigned. so I want to try
to get the same benefit of a statically assigned connection, with the
benefit of the dialup connection providing a backup...

any help---- much appreciated.


kindest regards

Frank Hauptle...
