I'm afraid that my need was not understood correctly. I don't need any router, and/or FR/ADSL balancing; I already built my own embedded Linux solution, and it works great. I just need an ISP that supports *BGP* not only over FR, but also over ADSL. Otherwise, I'll have to buy a second FR line (buying a second logical CIR will not help (as described below), and pay many bucks monthly to Bezeq, and to 2 ISP's. It may exceed the $1K per month !!! (currently, ADSL + fast FR + 2 ISP's, cost me TOGETHER a little more than $400). And of course I don't need any router to balance the TCP sessions that are initiated inside; The router that I built does it perfectly. I just need the incoming sessions to reach me through 2 separate lines (FR and ADSL), although the IP's are the same, which means BGP. > > Oleg Kobets wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > By the way: Is there any Israeli ISP which provides BGP over ADSL? > > > > > > > > > > Hmm, I don't think so.
