You can have dual network redundancy but you can't use both at the same time.

Why would you want to use wifi anyway if you have ethernet? ethernet is much faster and more reliable.

my Ethernet connection is only 8 Mb down and 1 Mb up so yeah and he has the same connection so if I used both my internet speed will be better.

Ah no you can't stack internet connections to get more speed (afaik). You can only have redundancy which means that if one goes down the other will continue working.

It does not work like that.

Yea you can do it. But you need special hardware then you connect to that with one connection
