Hello!
Please help me with this multiple WAN load-balancing
(aggregating/combining the speed).

Our second office is located in a place,
where ISPs only provide slow unlimited Internet 
traffic with speed not more than 128 Kbps.
So, our office is now connected that way:
We have bought several unlimited internet logins, 128Kbps each (VPN - pptp).
and use a bundle of route rules.

I tested the vpn connectivity to pptp server on main office, it worked.
Note that we didn't buy an external IP-addresses from our ISP (ISP does NAT for 
us).
So, our ISP doesn't block GRE,
and even such a complex thing -  "pptp through NAT over pptp" works, but the 
speed is 128kbps.

Since GRE is not port-based, and all our connections have the same IP-address 
(ISP's NAT server),
I'll try a pfSense to send GRE packets to our main VPN server over the Internet 
over all our ISP's connections in round-robins style, to combine their speed.
It will probably combine ONLY outbound speed of our channels, but it is better 
than nothing.

Does this "outbound speed combining solution" 
seem to work, and possible with pfSense?
Notice that:
- our ISP's pptp connections are with no encryption
- pptp connection to our main office
  should be with MPPE 128bit (security...).
