Well the reason is that our dsl connections are limited to a max speed of 512K in this country. So I thought of splitting the load between two dsl lines. If the box is able to do that dynamically then great. My question is how?

My big question is why? AFAIK, you cannot have more than one default gateway, unless you are using netgraph to balance between network interfaces. However, you could NAT C & D to their respective "public" interfaces. If E is a real IP, then the NATed traffic should flow to that interface. I would suggest using pf, as it is a most excellent firewall package. Here is the section of a PF guide regarding NAT. http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/nat.html Your rules would look like this (these are from memory, so sanity check them): -- #define your interfaces as macros: A = "fxp0" B = "fxp1" C = "fxp2" D = "fxp3" E = "fxp4" #define your NAT translations using our macros: nat on $A from ($C:network) to any -> $A nat on $B from ($D:network) to any -> $B #define your filtering rules: ... -- However, you will find that route add will not allow multiple default routes. You must use another package to allow for that, or at least it is beyond my knowledge. Let me know if you figure it out, I would be very interested.
