borfast Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Nice! I'd like to have one myself but I would't put it to good use, since I only have one cable connection... I could always try to convince my parents that an extra DSL connection was really not too much... and then I'd get one of those for me... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Sales Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Ohh man, I'd be happy if I could get one DSL line out here in the middle of nowhere! Hehe.. *kicks his dial-up modem* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Yeah sounds nice, but the only thing that caught MY eye was this: only $399,- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-JimE Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 It would be nice at home, but when you have a gigabit linkup at work, its pales in comparision. My parents are still learning the delicate art of emailing and surfing simple sites on the ADSL connection we have, i think it will be some time before they really start needing a 3mb connection! Nice though! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRwisdom12 Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 HG, I have seen them in a software form and I am pretty sure it was called Turbo as well, and it didn;t work for me. My buddy and I tried to get it to work for weeks to no avail. (the software version) It would be great if this worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matman Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I had one like this way back when that would duplex multiple phone lines, before we got a T-1 at my old job. That was great, but the ISP eventually caught on and instituted a "one connection per customer at a time" policy. Had to get a second and third account, but it was worth it to download things like beta software and service packs from Microsoft. Unless you have lots of $$$ to burn, I can't see as how it would be worthwhile to multiplex a DSL or cable connection. Most of any slowness I experience with my cable modem, I figure it's due to what's going on on the OTHER end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whare Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Who is going to be nice and get me one of them then coz that is sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lianna Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 CAUTION!!!! Prolonged use of extremely high speed internet connections have been know to produce wildly evident withdrawal symptoms in individuals temporarily subjected to dialup connections! Use at your own risk! Welcome Home, HG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinW Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 Ha! I've been using Verizon DSL for over 3 years, with nary a problem - until yesterday. DSL went down at 5:24am and didn't come up until midnight! -kw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idallen Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 You can configure a cheap Linux box to do the same sort of thing using iproute2. I have two DSL lines at home and use the Linux box to set up routes out both lines. (I haven't got something I like yet; since, the second line isn't stable yet and it keeps dropping. When it is stable, I'll have a routing config I can post.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Guru Posted April 29, 2003 Author Share Posted April 29, 2003 Yea but thats no fun! Ive never seen any linux box in my basement looking that sexy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
