They would also share the same subnet, so if one link goes down, wouldn't they both be down? I can't see using more than 1 modem for each coaxial line. Chris. David wrote: > Here is the setup I have.

Here is the setup I have. I have 3 network cards in my linux machine. 1 network card (eth0) goes to my internet network (192.168.0.0). Network Card 2 (eth1) and Network Card 3(eth2) go to the internet via 2 cable modems whose address is determined by dhcp. I can get either cable modem to work alone but I can't get them to work together. I would really like to be able to combine the 2 into 1 and have it detect a bad link as well in case i have to unplug 1 cable modem.

Thanks!
