I had a server in colocation in a datacenter that was hosting the forums. We've since migrated to a different host.

You can then have 2 500mbit lines to use. It means that you can segregate one set of connections for say external customer traffic: website, mail access ect and the other connection can be used for staff purposes - internal mail, remote access, file sharing.

Ok I see, thanks

Most people who get 2x uplinks get it from different providers for redundancy and for better peering, the additional capacity is nice but if somebody needs better speed (throughput, not latency) then getting a single 1Gbps uplink is better than 2x 500Mbps.

My desktop to the server is a 10Gb/s link

Server to the switch is another 10Gb/s link

Switch to router to firewall is all 1Gb

Firewall to modem is 300/20

How did you combine 2 connections, (I am noob at networking) take it easy on my please

There are many router and software have that function, I use pfSence but it won't detect the Link-Up connection then I use my old Netgear router flash Tomato Dualwan to work. I'm sure there are some business level router/firewall, but is so expensive...
