Can somebody tell what is the best way for load balancing with one ISP. Here is the scenario (there is a LAN behind the wireless clients): linux wireless client--------\ ---Access Point (Orinoco AP1000)----linux router----ISP linux wireless client--------/ The two wireless clients are connected to the two different wireless interfaces of the Access Point. They could be two PC's or one PC with two wi-fi cards (I don't think it matters). Since the configuration is in use now it is not recommended to make very long lasting experiments:). The idea is to balance (increase) the speed for the PC's behind the wireless client(s). Single wireless client achieves 5Mbit/s, but is shaped to 4 Mbit/s since at 5Mbit there is big lag, so a PC in the LAN when using static routes can't use more than 4Mbit even the other channel is free. Has somebody some experience with similar configuration, and what is the best solution: (t)eql, multipath routing, some variant of bonding, something else? Is it at all possible to use bonding in such situation? _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
