Combining 2 Wifi sources

[FliP0x]

Hello,

I can currently trying to combine 2 WiFi sources to increase my internet speed. One connection is my DSL connection and the other will be 4G.

 

Now, I have found an article that said you should change advanced IPv4 adapter settings for each connection to "Interface Metric: 15". Which I have done.

 

However, running Speedtest I do not see any difference in speed.

 

I know there is Speedify, but I do not want to pay for bandwidth. Is there something I am missing or are there any free programs to achieve this? I remember Linus talking about it in many networking videos, but I can't find when or if he suggested any programs or tools.

I have no idea if this kind of thing would work, but the test method definitely isn't right for it, because speed test basically tests the connection to one server/isp. 

 

My first curiosity would be, if you have two network adapters active, is if they're both sending and receiving data, which you can check in networkadapters>status.  To be completely honest, I think this type of thing would need a lot more configuration than changing the adapter priority.

They are both sending and receiving data constantly, even during Speedtest, but the result seems off.

A connection from your PC to the speed test can only take one path. Each connection has a separate IP and it is impossible to combine both connections and get a combined speed. The packets will take one path or another. This works great for load balancing or failover, but it cannot be used to aggregate bandwidth.

You are right, I just noticed they have different IPs.
