Re: Virgin 2 way splitter

If you're not too heavy a user, with minimal extra cost you could in fact bond two connections so you'd get full combined speed doing anything, but you'd need to use a customized router and it's not easy. A fun project if you're into router hacking but I'm not aware of any cheap "out of the box" solutions.

It all depends on your knowledge of Linux for pfSense or deep pockets for Cisco high end kit
Nothing and anything will allow bonding with the right equipment at the far end. No router will be able to bond two lines without the correct equipment at the far end, nomatter how much money you waste or how many Cisco logos you stick on it.

Does Ignition come on here? He recommended this router to someone else a while ago for such a job - but why would he if it didn't do what was being enquired about?

It does load balancing which is the best you'll get without the appropriate equipment at the far end.

I have no idea on pfsense. but I am sure I could find someone to source and build me a server. I don't pay for electricity as I have said before so I don't care if it's on 24/7
There's no need for a pfsense router when any Openwrt router will do the same job.
