Hi, > you can use mpd (or ppp) in multilink mode to encapsulate your = outgoing links via two different tcp paths to you other server where you = can undo it.. > mpd (and ppp I think) will allow you to select a couple of different = multiplexing schemes, including one where each packet is cut up and = sent, so that the slower link would be sending 1/3 of teh packet and the = faster link would be sending 2/3 of the packet. just to confirm I had great success with mpd. I have been able to create = two pptp tunnels (to two different ips, same machine). Setting the right = link speed, I can almost get the summed speed of the two links. Amazing. I have now to face some problems (I'd love to remove one of the two ips, = but I don't seem to be able to create a proper different route. Maybe I = can try with playing with ports and setfib, which I am already using for = other tasks on that router). Thank you very much for this hint. MPD is surely much more efficient = than lagg, with different speeds. Stefano=20=
