Bonding multiple network cards together on a computer...

I wanted to test this out so I put two nics in two computers each and installed the drivers for all four.

In the Network Neighborhood properties, I highlighted the two connections and bridged the two. A third connection appears and both nics are bridged. A new IP assigned to the bridged connection from the DHCP server. Repeated the process on the other computer.

I then transferred a large file, 700MB+ and watched the activity light on the router. Unfortunately, only one nic of the two bridged nics is blinking. I assume that the transfer was only using on nic.

Going back to the Network Neighborhood properties, I checked the speed and it only show 100Mbps instead of the expected 200Mbps. 🙁

What else can I try?
 
Well it works only on multiple in the power of 2.

I.e you need at least 8 NICs (j/k). 🙁:Q😉

Actually it is a "no can do". :disgust:
