This is a suggestion for the people who would like to use 2 internet connection with windows. I asked earlier in this newsgroup that How I can setup to Internet connection in Windows to use them as Bridging or LoadBalancing. But till date I didn't receive any reply. I am currently running Windows Vista and having one Broadband connection of Connect ISP company and one Dial-Up connection using Nokia N72 Mobile Airtel ISP. I was thinking of Bridging both connection and maybe it is not possible. According to my knowledge, Windows can only combine 2 Ethernet connection and no connection should be shared as well and LoadBalacing is also not possible where I was wanted both the connection to download with their on bandwidth. So, what I did to run both the connection simultaneously is to use Virtual PC. First I used the Windows XP Virtual Disk which was already saved in my computer and install the first Broadband connection in it. Then I install Nokia PC Suite in Windows Vista and configure the Dial-Up connection. and atleast I got what I wanted. Both the connection worked as LoadBalancing and giving me their own bandwidth. However, didn't succeed to Bridge both the connection. I will appreciate if someone would like to comment or suggest me regarding this.

Why ever in the world do you want to do this. If you have a broadband connection, is that not the best to use and faster than DSL? Why bridge a slow and fast connection. I mean, I got cable at 4mb and dropped my 56K modem ASAP. Why would I keep a slow piece of s**t.
& Mr . Big Man you got the luck, if you have 4Mbps Connection, its been very difficult to be in this surfing world with slow speed Think someone with 256kbps speed, why dont that guy want to have extra piece of cake. & for one more scenario man , when i do have both connections & one pc, then why not i make it use for download as in virtual pc as specified. Do take example that i want to download one 330MB movie with slow one in Virtual PC & 700 MB movie with broadband in Real Pc, then its going to help me very much as i just have to turn on the download & then go to bed while both connections doing my work @ Rajiv Kohlii I think its been possible with Sun Solaris as i had heard about bridgng the mac there & take the advantage of combined speed, still can not say the same thing in Windows until today, Microsoft guys are very slow

Can you believe a 4MB cable with a cap on the newsgroups. So I understand your issue to a bit. It would take me close to 24 hours to pull a 4gig file. I rarely did it as it was so painful. Or like you just dedicate the PC to the job for the next day. I guess anything you can eek out of the line is better than nothing.
