Thanks for the info,
I don't really know if this is going to be possible, I guess not. It is on
a permanent basis. I mean, I could set up static routes to commonly visited
places, but really, I was thinking of some way the linux box could randomly
choose a cable modem for whichever connection. For example, if I was
downloading a huge 100meg file on one, it would automatically send all other
requests to the other. I guess it won't be possible... Oh well!! Thanks
for your help.

If this is only for testing purposes, have two seperate network
cards going to each of the cable boxen, and then set up static routes out
each going to wherever, and then test one, then the other, and then both
and see what happens. If you need something more permanent you're probably
going to have a tough time of it. My best guess would be to just set up
a default route out one, and then a bunch of static routes out the other...
