hkbazzi wroteI got my friend's modem to my place (he's in mena el hosn) im in the mrayje one, I connected his modem and I got 2mbps speed but the details in the modem were still on my friend's 4mbps account and yet it connected.
both same isp ?
hkbazzi wroteGuys, did anyone try this?
If you have 2 DSL connections, one is a fast 8mbps line (for example) and then you have the unlimited 2mbps line.
You get the username and password of your ogero account and put the details of the unlimited 2mbps line in the 8bmps line, shouldn't that make it unlimited since the data being transferred is under the 2mbps ogero unlimited account?
Vice versa with the 2mbps DSL line
the speed and type of the internet is not tied to the dsl line, it's tied to the account registered on the modem and your isp
it depends on some centrals some of them limit the line speed some on account
i know from personal experience changing my account worked always but in some places i got limited to the Mb so i assumed the limite is on the line and in other laces i got my 8 Mb speed when i changed my account

yes it is tied

Back to bonding. So far I've got 3 working methods:
- My Asus router(rt-ac68u) load balancing:
To be honest I was hoping for better results. Browsing is slower. getting full bandwith on multisession apps.
- Speedify
Results are very good ( not perfect since you are using a vpn solution) it costs 50$ per year
- Dispatch-proxy
Very nice solution . very fast browsing and free, one disadvantage. not combining internet connections for streaming services like youtube.

Unsuccessful tests:
-Bonding several vpns
-PF firewall was not performing well
- zeroshell ( couldn;t find a good vps provider)

Currently i;m waiting for the tp load balancer (i've bought it online one on ebay) . proceeding with further tests.

Just installed,The new TP link load balancer and everything seems to be prominent.

hello, is this bonding helpful to get lower latency for gaming ? and should the 2 connections be from 2 different providers or the opposite ?
chaf.b wrotehello, is this bonding helpful to get lower latency for gaming ? and should the 2 connections be from 2 different providers or the opposite ?
theoretically it doesn't affect ping just speed and quota
chaf.b wrotehello, is this bonding helpful to get lower latency for gaming ? and should the 2 connections be from 2 different providers or the opposite ?
In short, no. Usually when you have a congestion-ed connection the latency goes higher.
In my case the response time (for loading a page) improved due to the fact the bandwidth increased and the fact that idm ( My new dsl) has lower latency than Sodetel.
Have you guys heard of EFM from Ogero ? They'll do the bonding, a real bonding (like external services), which means you'll get the full speed on all your browsing (download and upload) experience. Basically they'll set up multiple DSL line and will split the traffic in their DSLAM accross the lines you get, then the modem will bond the traffic to give you one bonded connection.

The trick is that they force you to buy the equipment (modem and firewall) from a company called Amik Online SARL and this company sells the equipment for 2-3 times what it costs abroad... (in total the bill is at 3K for initial setup... this is ridiculous)

Otherwise I just stumbled upon an internet bonding service by sodetel (google it as I can't post a link...)
Has anyone contacted them about that ?

Yes, you will have to pay 850$ for the equipments and around 30 or 32$ extra fee monthly. they were also VERY surprised when i told them that these bonding routers are available in the local market
look for CRS lebanon this company do the job for sodetel, idm, several ISPs.and companies...
cool! thanks chef.b and elserge82.

what hardware do I need? what is the cost ? from where can I buy it? .. is it true bonding or what?.
Hey Serge, sorry for the late reply, i've been interested in this topic since i got back from abroad in 2010

this is what i've been using purchased from canada



they have them here but only the supper expensive models 1000$+

this one costs about 300$

here's the interface



and these are the algos:

This field allows you to choose the WAN selection algorithm.

Weighted Balance - Traffic will be proportionally distributed among available WAN connections according to the specified load distribution weight.

Persistence - Traffic coming from the same machine will be persistently routed through the same WAN connection.

Enforced - Traffic will be routed through the specified WAN connection regardless of the connection's health status.

Priority - Traffic will be routed through the healthy WAN connection that has the highest priority.

Overflow - Traffic will be routed through the healthy WAN connection that has the highest priority and is not in full load. When this connection gets saturated, new sessions will be routed to the next healthy WAN connection that is not in full load.

Least Used - Traffic will be routed through the healthy WAN connection that is selected in the field Connection and has the most available down link bandwidth.

Lowest Latency - Traffic will be routed through the healthy WAN connection that is selected in the field Connection and has the lowest latency. Periodic latency checking packets are sent to the selected connections to determine their latency values. Thus additional network usage will be incurred.

*Conclusion*

it speeds up torrent, and multi connection download managers effectively combining the speeds, but browsing and you tube are bound to one wan, - on the weighted balance algo

I've tried to increase the max simultaneous number of connections to a web server on chrome, but results are unpredictable

what have you been using so far?

As easy and simple solution, I am currently using a tp link load balancer. Browsing fast. downloading fast. Streaming is slow unless you are using popcorn for sure.

Forgot to mention very cheap solution with 4 internet lines.
