Could it work

so is it possible to use a nic to take two of RJ45 network cables to bound two internet conections( ths same one) to some what double it.. Someone i no told me he done it but i ]have trouble believing it.. Our is there any other way to do the following.
I
have seen this" Some NICs can pair them to double the network throughput by using both on the same network. If you like multiplayer games over a network, this might help for LAN-based matches. Unless you have GB fiber, it is not likely to help much over Internet-based matches as one NIC is more than enough to handle the traffic." i dont if its real or not but ya..
 
Yes, it is possible.
Though, you need software to handle what you are talking about, so, it is better to get a dual WAN router, or a router than can be updated to dual WAN.
 
Sophos UTM home edition will allow for load balancing over a dual wan connection. You will need 3 nic ports on the box running UTM 9. 2 for the WAN and one for the LAN.
 
You can Double it only if the service comes from one ISP that specifically provides it.

Network Traffic is Not water you can not combine the streams since they are based on protocols and back and forth feedback. By just plugin in two NICs and two cables you do not really getting any thing.


😎

P.S Load balancing is not combing Speed.

i got told this:
If a NIC has a single connector, it is capable of only a single connection. You can put multiple NICs in a single machine. And some network cards have multiple connections. (A quad NIC card, for example.)

You cannot make two connections to a single NIC connector.

You can program two NICs to be on the same network. You could, conceivably, bond the two NICs together, connect them to two switch ports, and treat them as a single connection - but only if the NICs, OS, and switch support it.

Even if you do, you don't get twice the speed. You get two single-speed connections. But, with multiple TCP/IP sessions, you could see increased throughput.

You are correct that the limit will be your Internet connection.
 
Take a look at following video. It's misleading in the title.

Combining up to 4 Broadband Connections with TP-Link Load Balance Broadband Router TL-R470T+ V2

The Youtuber did post a comment in his own video later saying
The new comment system won't let me respond to most comments anymore (WTF) but to answer peoples questions about BONDING this device does not do that so you can only utilize one modem per connection but it will load balance the collections across multiple modems.

In the video it shows the download/upload speed is doubled. But it's actually load balancing (sending/receiving multipile files on different WAN ports ), not bonding. You won't get double speed if you are downloading/uploading single file using FTP protocol or even streaming videos.

Your WAN ports have different IP addresses. There is no way ISP sending same file over 2 WAN IP addresses and combine them together at your router.

I have been following this http://www.pcgamer.com/how-to-set-up-nic-teaming-link-aggregation/ .... But im loocking if it heaven works in windows or windows 10pro

You need switches that support link aggregation and can only do it locally.

or you can take advantage of Windows 10's native support of SMB 3 protocol , but you need to have powerful CPU and do it right.

Load balancing does help if you have multiple PC on your LAN. PC1 could be using WAN1 downloading file 1 and PC2 could be using WAN2 to download file 2. The load is balanced across WAN ports.

I seen this video but I sound to do more speed will transferring..
 
a contact I have had double his connections (not like tiojoe does let me explain ) he one or two Nic and bonded them to make.. he told me a 1 or more years ago.so now I what to try it...

Then ask him how he did it. What ISP, what equipment he uses. Or just call you ISP and ask if you can double your WAN speed using 2 lines or more, and what is needed.

If you are only playing games, your existing speed is way more than enough.

He used a nic but I want to how I would do it... if I want a other line it's 350 or more for a other line...

Well, does he really know the difference between load balancing and bonding? Talk to your contact or visit his home and ask him to show you how he did it.

$350 is very expensive for another line. Why would you want to spend that much money to begin with?
 
That won't be able to happens. He passe away so ya that can't happend. I remember for that he used a nic and it worked but it was a little ago..
 
No.. he took tho 10gigabits line and bounded them to make it 20gbs. It would be something like tha. Bounded them from his switch if I'm not mistaking.
