In the absence of anyone using it knowing the answer, the reply I imagine would be 'Another network card'. Might give it a try as I already have a proxy with two NICs that's a 24/7 machine so could service the other machines and try it with no contract FTTC on the 2nd line (which is an ex-Megastream to London) to see how it goes.

What total RUBBISH.

It's not rubbish at all, maybe you should read into it more.

It can basically bond two adapters on your computer together which are presumably connected to different internet connections so you can utilize both of them for downloading/uploading.

I.E. Bond your Ethernet Adapter (100Mbps for example) and Wireless Adaptor (130Mbps) and spread the load across both of them (Achieving a theoretical 230Mbps if you have a 230Mbps to spare between two internet connections). Obviously there is no benefit when using only one internet connection unless the router has certain QOS rules enabled.

I did it at university and got around 200Mbps by combining the 100Mbps connection in my room with the Wireless connection available.

Very clever piece of software.

It is rubbish, it does NOT make the broadband speed any faster.

Just because you bonded two lines at 100 and 130 to get 230 does NOT mean it is any faster.

Can you explain why it's rubbish and why it doesn't work? I would expect a better qualified and explained answer from you.

Are you being intentionally dense?

If I had 2 FTTC lines at 80/20 non bonded, I could use one at a time to get 75mbps download and 18mbps upload on either.. With this software I would get around 140mbps download and 35mbps upload as the software has "combined" the 2 connections into one.

I don't get what your point is

Read the original post:

If u have more than 2 lines of FTTC or have both mixed 1 x FTTC and 1 x Cable as this software called Connectify Dispatch Pro will make your broadband speed go faster.

How can it be faster?

Awkward is probably the correct word.


It's just ADSLMax's explanation he really has issue with, because the software will make your throughput faster than a single connection, but not equal to or more than the sum of the two connections.

Unless of course they used lossless compression on the data, which could theoretically increase perceived throughput depending on how compressible said data was.

Well I'm sure it does what it says on the tin as adslmax says but the only way to check is to find out for yourself....

I have a question though: with both connections in use, which external IP address will be returned if you look it up? I suppose the answer might whichever connection it's using at the time depending on what you are doing (see links below) .

I have another feed available via WiFi so will give it a try in the next few days.

THIS LINK will show how it works with an illustration of its Control panel and HERE for how to download a single file faster using both connections but needs the aid of a download manager to chunk the file to aggregate properly. So it does need some help.

You can switch the aggregation on and off if you want.

The only oddity I can find is that it says somewhere it can only handle 50Mb max?

If anyone finds more useful info then please post.
