2 internet connections combining

ok there is my problem:

 

1) i have 1 internet connection:120mbits down and 40 up

2) i also have a connection:400mbits down and 20 up

 

and now i want to combine them over a router software that normally uses internet connection 2 and switches you to the first when you are entering a URL in a list

 

example:

normal :netflix games etc 

first:youtube twitch(im only using them for uploading)

What type of internet are each of the connections?

 

ADSL, Cable, VDSL etc?

^^^ this is the only way to get close to what you want.

Other than that, it is not possible.

What if your motherboard has dual LAN ports and you bridge the connections in windows?

If it has dual lan, then they work redundantly.

If one fails, it will use the other.

You can also force certain programs and servers to use one or the other.

 

If you somehow bridge them together, idk how, then you would just have the internet speed added up.

 

You would still not be able to have netflix use one and internet use the other or whatever.

Windows has been able to bridge multiple network adapters natively since Windows 7.  I used to do it on my laptop with the LAN port and WiFi card all the time.

Bridging two interfaces together does not allow you to use both of them, it does not make the speed be "added up". Bridging means that any data coming in on interface A that isn't meant for your computer, is copied and sent out on interface B, and vice-versa. It turns your computer into a switch essentially (at a definition level, a switch is something that does switching in hardware at line speed, while a bridge does the switching in software on a general purpose CPU, and can only reach line speed if the CPU is fast enough). If you have two internet connections, implying two LANs, and each was connected to a motherboard port and you bridged them together, the only result is that you would connect those two LANs together into a single LAN, and would like cause issues with both routers trying to do DHCP on the same LAN (and IP address conflicts if they both use the same subnet)

Looking to buy GTX690, other multi-GPU cards, or single-slot graphics cards:

You're right, the correct would I should have used is teaming.
