True bonding ie. of multiple DSL would require support by the ISP anyway. Even if you write "just balancing" - it's not as simple as it appears. Was overseas not so long ago, and massively struggled with accessing the Internet (Web applications), establish a VPN, from a hotel. Discovered that their balancing sent out the packets on random network connections, and (of course) my as well as several popular application firewalls denied and blocked the sessions, because the source IP changed randomly - for the very same TCP session, for the same UDP spource and destinaiton port.
