Home Link Aggregation

[EvilPOKES]

Greetings all!

 

Does anyone know if there is a device available (not a switch) that would do link aggregation at the home? I could have sworn LTT did a video about something similar, but I can't find it and can't tell if I am just crazy.

 

Scenario:

 

My wife wants to move to a rural property and all I can find available in that area is 15 meg TDS internet. They said they could do multiple lines to the residence, but that is all fruitless if I cannot aggregate the connections.

 

Thanks!

LTT indeed did a video in this:

Link aggregation is a parallel connection between two specific network devices. If you are talking about dual WAN, then it is not link aggregation since you are connected to different providers.

The connections would all be from the same ISP. Unfortunately, the wireless provider is the only thing available that I can find. I just want to make it to where I can game (15 meg gaming is going to be painful if I can't combine services) and others can stream netflix, vue, etc. simultaneously.

Gaming should have no issues at 15Mb, latency would be far more of an issue. Using wireless internet whether it's a WISP or Sattelite or Cellular, will have higher latency than most wire-based connections. Even though downloads are painful at 15Mb it is plenty to actually game on. You could game just fine on a 5Mb by 5Mb as long as nothing is saturating your connection. The solution provided an option to increase speeds however I will guess your latency goes up due to overhead, however, it may be acceptable. Good luck.
