    How to Increase Internet Speed Using Two Services?

     
    I live in a place where internet speeds are very slow. (Right now the service provider offers 256kbps.) I have home service I connect to with an ethernet cable, and I also have mobile service that I use through a USB stick. Is there some way to configure my computer to use both sources at the same time to widen the potential bandwidth. (Could I hope for the equivalent of lightning fast 512kbps?)

    You could try this and set up what is called network teaming. NAT32 Windows Software Router Home Page (31. December, 2011)

    Actually it is possible if they have a Dual WAN router or Modem.

    Though they would need one capable of connecting the Wireless connection to the device besides the home connection, but it is possible.

    The one thing (and very important) is the line from the NiD to the modem. Is it a home run or is it daisy chained throughout the premises? For best results you would want a single pair straight to modem.
