It seems like it says it can't connect (90% of the time, 10% it works, just pure luck) when I have both of the cable modems working together with this iproute command ip route default equalize nexthop via ***.***.***.*** dev eth0 nexthop via ***.***.***.*** dev eth2 iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -o eth2 iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -o eth0 Internet and everything else works fine with that. I need a solution whether it be some kind of forwarding (port 5190) so that anything received comes through 1 ethernet address. It might even have to be sent out the same ethernet address but I'm thinking either one would work if there is someway to put a return address on the packet or something. I know AOL im'r works 100% when the linux box is routing just through 1 cable modem. Thanks!

ip route default equalize nexthop = via=20 ***.***.***.*** dev eth0 nexthop via ***.***.***.*** dev = eth2
iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j = MASQUERADE=20 -o eth2

Internet and = everything else=20 works fine with that.
