Just to make sure I understand: 

You want to know how to load balance your bandwidth among a number 
of ethernet interfaces with the emphasis on making sure that once a 
connection is established that it will use the same interface, right?  

If so here are a couple of links:

* http://lartc.org/howto/ - Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control
Howto
* http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html - Specific page 
	regarding multiple links

If that isn't your goal please disregard.

Good luck,
