Surfing with two DSL lines simultaneously

Surfing with two DSL lines simultaneously
For Whom the speed of its DSL access is not enough, you can resort to
unusual measures. We explain how to use two DSL lines or UMTS sticks
simultaneously.

Not everyone is lucky enough to live in an area where DSL with a full
range of 16,000 kbit / s or even VDSL up to 50,000 kbit / s is
available. A possible alternative would be to the Internet via the cable
connection, which now ranges from 32 Mbit / s offering, in some regions
even 100 Mbit / s. But if your site no cable Internet is available, it
usually looks bleak with fast and affordable alternatives.
Anyone who so much suffering in the slow speed that he is willing to
invest some € per month in addition, for this paper, we present a
solution: the coupling of multiple DSL and / or UMTS access. This may
initially sound strange, but it is a perfectly workable solution to surf
faster.

If you at the speed of your DSL connection is not satisfactory, one is
faster at your site but not technically feasible, there is the option to
combine two DSL connections, or to couple.

You may be wondering now, should work like this, after all, you only
have one phone line that leads to you in the apartment. Although this is
right so far, but in the line are usually four wires. Per port are
required but only two. That is, a pair of wires unconnected ends of the
cover behind the phone jack. Unless the other two cores are consistently
led to the cellar distributor of telecom (transfer point), you can
switch to a second terminal. The commissioning of your provider then
mounted a second phone jack beside the first.
To proceed to couple two DSL connections:

DSL tariff comparison pcwelt.de
1st Order a second DSL line. On the rate calculator to see pcwelt.de the
lowest bidder. Tap in your code there, so that regional deals are
considered. If you have decided on a vendor that you specify in the
order that you want a new connection. With some providers, you need to
do in online form - strictly speaking, false - statement to make "No
phone line available." They never mention the number of your current
connection, otherwise you may get no additional connection, but the old
is replaced by the new one. Do you prefer on your mobile phone number as
a callback number.
2nd Obtain the following components:

Draytek Vigor 2910G
- Offers a special router that connect two DSL modems (WAN connections)
and multipath routing or load balancing support. Such routers are
relatively rare, so we have picked out three possible candidates for you:

1st Draytek Vigor 2910th It is available in several versions - for
example, without the WLAN (Vigor 2910), with Wi-Fi (Vigor 2910G), with
VoIP PBX (Vigor 2910V) as well as wireless and VoIP telephone system
(Vigor 2910VG). The prices between 150 and 230 euros.
2nd Allnet ALL1295VPN. This router has no wireless and costs around 190 €.
3rd Allnet ALL1297FW. Also this router has no wireless. It costs around
150 €.

D-Link DSL modem DSL-380T/DE
- Two DSL modems. If you own your existing DSL line a router with
integrated DSL modem, check the manual, if the modem function can also
be used separately. When the AVM Fritz boxes of the problem as possible.
The router that you get to your new DSL connection must support this
feature. If not, buy one or two simple DSL modems, for example, the
D-Link for DSL-380T/DE and 34 €.
3rd Close to everything: After the second DSL line was connected,
connect to a telephone box to a DSL modem, or DSL to configure the
router so that they can be used as a pure DSL modem. At the Fritz boxes
must "use Fritz! Box as a DSL modem" is only to "Settings, Advanced
Settings, Internet access" option. The network port of the first DSL
modem or DSL router, you connect to the WAN socket of the first special
router, the network connection of the second DSL modem or DSL router
with the second WAN port.

Configuration menu of the Draytek Vigor 2910
4th Configure the special router: In the settings menu of the
load-balancing router with two WAN ports that they should build their
connection via PPPOE. Enter the first WAN port to access the first DSL
line, the second to access the second one DSL connection. The router
should automatically decide, from which it transmits network usage data
via the second DSL connection. If necessary, you can change this
threshold. At the request can also specify that only data packets of
certain Internet services via the second port are sent. For example, you
can have all the data from a swap meet run on a port and all other data
on the other.

Download Manager DownThemAll!
5th Use a download manager: Since the call to be built webpages multiple
simultaneous server connections, one for each component of the page
(images, banners, videos, ...), you'll notice an immediate speed
increase here. When downloading a file, however, because the default
runs only on a single server connection. For technical reasons, a single
server connection can be described with the bundling is not split into
two DSL lines. Therefore, you should install a download manager that
creates multiple concurrent server connections and downloads on any one
part of the file. For Firefox, we recommend the free extension DownThemAll.
Note: There are two reasons, which could again fail the second order for
the DSL connection: 1 There are already occupied all the lines leading
from the basement to the street cabinet to the distributor road. 2nd In
exchange, all DSL ports are already occupied. Both can learn but only if
you have already instructed the circuit. However, they are no risk: If
the connection can not be realized, the order is canceled for free. Then
you still have the option, your DSL connection with a UMTS access to
pool, so to combine the steps shown up with those on the next page.

After we have described to you how you pair two DSL connections, to
achieve a higher rate, you will learn how to accomplish the same thing
with two UMTS access. In particular, T-Mobile and Vodafone have
well-developed UMTS networks, characterized by the acceleration
technology with HSDPA up to 3.6 Mbit / s, even at individual locations
of up to 7.2 Mbit / s can use.
Where no UMTS is available you surf nationwide (T-Mobile) and almost
nationwide (Vodafone and O2) on the EDGE technology with 220 kbit / s.
This is not particularly exciting, but at least more than an analog
modem (56 kbit / s) or ISDN (64 Kbps). And with the bundling of two
approaches to get EDGE on at least 440 kbit / s. The speeds mentioned
are of course ideal values, which vary depending on network utilization.
To proceed to couple two UMTS access:
1st Order two UMTS data flat rates: We offer you an overview of each
affordable flat rates with UMTS UMTS contract and prepaid flatrate. The
only catch with UMTS flat rates is that they cut back after a certain
volume of usage per month (usually 5 MB) for the rest of the month on
analog modem or ISDN standard (56 kbits / s or 64 kbit / s). Since you
are using, yes, but two UMTS rates, doubling the volume, which stands
for fast data transfer. Since the router transmits data packets not
entirely evenly distributed on both connections will reach one of the
two rates, throttling somewhat more likely than the others.
2nd Obtain the following components:
- Offers a special router that connect two internet connections (WAN
connections) and multipath routing or load balancing support. As
described on the previous pages, these routers are relatively rare.
Three possible candidates are: 1 Draytek Vigor 2910th It is available in
several versions - for example, without the WLAN (Vigor 2910), with
Wi-Fi (Vigor 2910G), with VoIP PBX (Vigor 2910V) as well as wireless and
VoIP telephone system (Vigor 2910VG). The prices between 150 and 230 euros.
2nd Allnet ALL1295VPN. He has no WiFi and costs around 190 €.
3rd Allnet ALL1297FW. Also this router has no wireless. It costs around
150 €.

UMTS Stick Vodafone Surf
- Two UMTS USB sticks surf: You can obtain a rule for UMTS flat rate or
no cost to do so. Make sure that the drives compatible with UMTS router
(next item) are.

3G UMTS Router Edimax 6210n
- Two routers at the UMTS can connect flash drives and (at least)
provide a LAN connection. Particularly compact and convenient is the
Linksys 3G 6210n, the price is around 65 €. Edimax has compiled a list
of the compatible UMTS sticks.
If you have opted for load-balancing router (first point) for the Vigor
2910, by the way you need only one UMTS router. Because of the Vigor
2910 offers the possibility to connect yourself to a UMTS-Stick. A list
of compatible drives is available here.
3rd Close to everything: you insert the UMTS stick into the USB sockets
on the UMTS router and configure it according to instructions. Enable
the address assignment via DHCP. The wireless function of the UMTS
router off switch. If you use the Linksys 3G 6210n, set the function
switch to the integrated network port on the "LAN".
The network port of the first UMTS router, connect the WAN port of the
first load-balancing router, the network connection of the second UMTS
router with the second WAN port. If you use the Vigor 2910, so you need
not have a second UMTS router and instead put the second UMTS Stick
directly into the USB port of the load-balancing router.

UMTS configuration of the Draytek Vigor 2910
4th Configure the special router: In the settings menu of the
load-balancing router with two WAN ports that connect to that run on a
dynamic IP address (DHCP). If you use the Vigor 2910, turn on "WAN2" in
the "Basic Configuration" on "3G USB modem" and select the "Internet
Dial-Up" at entry "3G USB modem," select "PPP". Then click on "details"
to set up a UMTS connection.
The load-balancing router decides normally automatically, from which it
transmits network usage data via the second UMTS access. If necessary,
you can change this threshold. At the request can also specify that only
data packets of certain Internet services via the second port are sent.
For example, you can have all the data from a swap meet run on a port
and all other data on the other.
5th Use a download manager: Since the call to be built webpages multiple
simultaneous server connections, namely for each component of the page
(images, banners, videos, ...) one, you will notice an immediate speed
increase here. When downloading a file, however, because the default
runs only on a single server connection. For technical reasons, a single
server connection can be described by the coupling does not split in two
UMTS connections. Therefore, you should install a download manager that
creates multiple concurrent server connections and downloads on any one
part of the file. For Firefox, we recommend the free extension DownThemAll.
Of course we can because of the variety of possible configurations can
not guarantee that the UMTS-pooling is working properly for you too.
From a technical point of view, but nothing to the contrary. We are
keen to hear your experiences as comments to this article.
