You can balance your load over multiple networks. In my case, i am connected to 2 networks-Maxis and ScreamyX. Doing this, i got the fastest speed i ever seen .. 164kB/s



This is how you do it:

Load balancing doesn't work like this.

Windows 2000 and above automatically select the first NIC in order in the "Adapters and Bindings" screen to send out all packets.

There is a need to tweak the routing table in the Windows to further distribute different traffic to different gateway.

In Windows 2000 Server and 2003 Server, we can using the "Routing and Remote Access" tool to define static routes.

Once we have started to gather all the seeds, look at the IP address of those seeds, if the seeds are distributed evenly from 0.0.0.1 to 255.255.255.254, we can define general static routes like this:-

Destination=128.0.0.0
NetworkMask=128.0.0.0
Gateway=(router 1 ip address)
Metric=(an integer higher than the default route metric)

Destination=0.0.0.0
NetworkMask=128.0.0.0
Gateway=(router 2 ip address)
Metric=(an integer higher than the default route metric)

Then Windows would be able to go through different gateway to connect to different seeds. Note that higher metric number = higher priority.

Note that above is just a very general example, further tweaking of the routing table is needed to achieve maximum performance.

The routing table can be edited using command too.
