At the moment I have two high speed connections to the internet -- one somewhat faster than the other. I was looking at the advanced router howto and created the tables, etc as specified in section 4.2 of that document and changed my default route to a multipath route with weight 2 on the faster provider and weight 1 for the slower one. Then I went and downloaded a test file, but to my surprise I was getting a lower speed than with the default route to the faster provider. Is there a better way to do this so it actually does me some good? Even if it doesn't work I have certainly learned something in the process, but I thought two routes would be better than one. Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- John Covici covici@ccs.covici.com _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
