To the best of my knowledge what you are attempting to do will not work
without cooperation from the ISP. Usually bonding requires it to be done
on both ends not just one.

I am only aware of 1 ISP ever to do this in the U.S. It was Copper
Mountain Networks, who is no longer in existence.

If anyone knows of another ISP offering bonded DSL lines please let me
know.

So in your case I do not think it will get much better than things are
if you are already doing load balancing/redundancy.
