[asterisk-users] Load balenced (ADSL) network connections, is it possible?

[phil.dawson at marnock.com]

Have you considered SDSL for higher bandwidth?  Also, a dual wan router
would help with your load balancing problem?  Just google'd and spotted one
that seems to be voip friendly.  For incoming calls you could ask your ISP
to bind your ADSL/SDSL feeds.

Hypothetical offcourse :-)

Hi List,

I need to put an Asterisk server in a remote office where only ADSL is
available.  Maximum of 8meg downstream 646k upstream.

I need to handle 20 concurrent calls over IAX preferably uLaw, so 64k per
channel.

Is it possible to somehow have multiple NICs in the server each with a
different IP address pointing to a different default gateway (router). But
then some how load balanced into a virtual network connection?

Any ideas or solutions would be appreciated – just in case I have gone off
at a wild tangent.

Thanks
