Most of the SOHO router vendors (Netgear, Linksys, etc) have a model
targeted at this application. When this class of dual homed router
first came out several years ago, they were notoriously unreliable, but
I would hope they work better by now. A search on the term ping based

Hi Paul
You can do this on a linux box with a pretty much basic kernel.
I currently have a similar setup at home with a DSL and a cable line (from
different providers).
Here's the script I'm actually using: http://ocaholic.ch/download/multinat.txt
Some packets are tagged with iptables (SSH as

You would need at least one router for this.
Personally I would connect both DSL modems into a small Cisco router or
multi-layer switch. Use that router as the default gateways for each LAN
and have two static routes as the default gateway on the router to
specify each DSL line. This would allow
Do you control or have access to the provider side-the PPPoE server-and would
both PPPoE connections hit the same PPPoE server at the provider? If so, I
recommend setting up a PPP multilink with both DSL lines. The DSL provider
would have to support that capability. I also recommend something

I like mixing cable with dsl. Tasty disparate paths (modulo garden shears
applied to the single ingres point to your basement) if not technologies, orgs
and methodologies. Or radio + dsl, or pigeon + mule, take your pick.
Would be great if you could rate your

I use a T1/26xx for primary and a sprint datacard in a little NAT router for
secondary. The two boxes sit on the same LAN but provide different gateway
IP addresses. The sprint router does the DHCP, so things that ask for DHCP
wind up using that as the primary. Some boxes use the 26xx as

Yes. This allowed the provider to use a variety of different technologies to
reach a site, eg: IP over CATV, DSL, Fiber, Wireless,
