How to Use more than 1 internet connection?

Hello everyone I was just wondering if anyone knew how to use more than one wifi connection at the same time so I could get a faster internet connection. (I do have 2 wifi cards)

Thanks

i think you can't because of teaming or there the lace of teaming support  on wifi cards. are they the same the manufacturer

I think you can by bridging the connections (assuming you're in windows) but I have no personal experience with it.

It is possible, but probably a bit of a pain. There are routing operating systems like PFSense and ZeroShell that are designed to handle stuff like multiple internet routes. You can hook  up your wireless cards to a virtual machine running one of those  (or any other you happen to try out) and then have it route to a virtual internal network interface that your computer would then read from.

Thanks for all the tips! I tried bridging the connections in windows 8 but it didn't work very well. I would try a virtual machine but my computer wouldn't be able to do that cause I am using a laptop.

^ Bump.

Pfsense makes it pretty easy. Seriously just System > Routing > gateways and then make a wan group, both with the same priority or different if you choose. The router will prioritize traffic based on errors, latency, a user defined "weight" setting, etc. 

It won't evenly "split" each bit like running 2 drives in raid 0, so one speed test won't really double, but it will load balance and failover when it's on the same "tier" (all are tier 1 by default), so if you have many concurrent users and not just one your speed will effectively double.

If you haven't toyed around with pfsense or just about any other freebsd project like freenas or ddwrt, go do it. It's awesome what these tiny operating systems can do.
