So long as you don't run in to bandwidth limitations, there should not
be any problems. I.e. two bonded 100 BaseT connections going in to one
100 BaseT connection. Or at least no more bandwidth than the single
connection can handle.
I don't recall how bonding alters frames, if at all. I don't think that
it does, but just be aware that if it does, you may end up with
different MTUs on your single segment verses your bonded segment.
