You can't use a bonding router on its own as you need bonding to be supported at the ISP as well. Service such as Shareband appear to do something along the right lines.

I used a dual WAN router to load balance across a VM and ADSL connection but had problem with secure sites as they need all traffic to come from one IP address. The router allowed me to specify a particular WAN for a specific target IP address but then failed of course if the WAN specified went down.

I abandoned the project in the end...
