2 ADSL Routers = 1 connection. Is it possible?

[Stewie007]

Hi guys,

I've got 2 ADSL routers (old Marconi and new Telkom Wifi) and I was wondering if it is at all possible to combine the two connections to create one?

I've got 1024kb ADSL line and Telkom ISP but my connection speed doesn't come close to what they claim it should be... which really pisses me off as it is NOT cheap.

If anybody can help that would be great.

Thanks,
Stewie

No

Not really advisable - one modem per line.

You can initiate multiple connections from the same adsl router though if it is in bridged mode.

2 modems wont help.

Log a fault and downgrade your line if it's not up to spec.

do you want to sell the one router?

theoretically it possible, but not sure with the sh1tty telkom routers...

@cisco ... it's not possible. Even theoretically. Forgetabout it.
The DSLAM port simply cannot cope with signals from 2 different modems being recieved at the same time.

ok, im under the impression that he has 2 connections, wireless broadband and the fixed line adsl. if that is the case, it is possible.

Thanks all for the replies

Thanks guys for all the help. Sorry "mh348", the other modem is not for sale mate as I'm keeping as a backup as I work from home. "bwana v.19", I'll take your advise and log a fault.
I've been running LineSpeedTest for weeks now, here is my results:
