Guys,
Load balancing has been done at Cisco with Multilink Traffic Routing Protocol
(MLTRP) and there are MLTRP projects for Linux and PPP.

PPP|

| Linux Box |
Local Subnet | |--------------Dsl | Cable modem|
PPP|

Searching google with "multilink routing protocol linux" produced many hits and
while I did not have time to check many of these out, I found:
http://linux-mp.terz.de/
Starts with:
# pppd /dev/ttyS0 multilink
# pppd /dev/ttyS1 multilink mp-join ppp0 mp-nonp noip
# pppd /dev/ttyS2 multilink mp-join ppp0 mp-nonp noip
Also Linux Journal has had articles on this. Check them also.
Hope this helps. Let us know how you make out with this.

Check
