I need some help, advice or just a starting point on the following=20
situation:

Link A - 64kbps leased line
Link B - 512kbps ADSL line

Is it possible to have Link A saturated constantly and have the excess=20
traffic "spill over" onto Link B? I know it's possible to have packets sent=
=20
down links in a round-robin fashion and I've read in the howto on load=20
sharing over multiple interfaces (
http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.loadshare.html), but I do not have control ove=
r=20
the termination of the link at the ISP's (two different one as well). Also=
=20
note that splitting different protocols over each of these links are not=20
possible in our case.

Reason being, Link A is a more reliable and more expensive link, so I need=
=20
to over-use it's capacity if it we're, and use the cheaper ADSL (link B)=20
offering to keep al services running when the leased line (A) is saturated.

Any tips, suggestions and comments would be welcomed.

Regards
