I was told by a "old pro" at a local ISP that some people have had 2 DSL lines/routers and one IP, without cooperation from the other end, I was told that it was starting to p-off alot of people because it was increasing loads on DNS world wide. Have I seen it done?  Hope, just heard of it...will I look into doing this? Nope, too lazy to do anything that'll get me in trouble.
  I dont know what its called, it is kinda like shotgun though. Bonded sounds good. Its not a Paired connection like paracom has available.
