I find it difficult to construct a multi-path situation where the paths are equal (i.e. not wifi vs GbE), and where there are actually more than one path the entire way. Can you construct such a network out of laptops, desktops, home routers and NAS?

Wifi with an AP is a time-division star topology at layer-2, so the AP decides who gets bandwidth... -- Michael Richardson <[email protected]>, Sandelman Software Works -= IPv6 IoT consulting =-
