Muliti wireless intnet for one computer (using difrent wirless sourceson 1 computer)
 
So i believe its possible the question is how, and how much?
if i wanted to leach internet of like for example 4 different wireless sources(wifi,g,N w/e and assume they are not secure), how would i do it, and technically i would get great speed right?

It would be possible to connect to multiple sources, if you had multiple wireless adapters. The speed is not additive, though... at best, you could use some form or load-balancing software to split the load across the different sources, but each connection would still only use one feed.

Hmm... yeah, you can definitely have multiple wireless adapters and have each of them connect to a different access point... but how you set it up to distribute the load for downloading is the question.

By default, one adapter will have a higher metric, meaning that all traffic will go through that one unless there isn't a route for it. It would then try the adapter with the next highest metric.

Might be doable, but definitely not something that's going to work automatically.

if your running vista

you can have multiple wireless adaptors and they will combine the speed to download

im doing this since i have 2 wireless adaptors to connect to people's net that are not secured and 1 wired nic using my own net

speeds are awesome =]

i forgot who i was talking to, but, he mentioned some piece of quite expensive hardware ($1000-$5000) i think he called it some kinda bridge or switch... any way, it wouldn't involve multiple adapters, after all all you need is one antenna(or many single directional ones) to receive wireless singles, and the basic way it was put to me is your internet kinda works like a torrent at all times if u know what i mean. dose this ring any bells?

You know for sure that it's actually using all three connections?

Maybe they added this feature to Vista... I guess I only know about how it worked on XP.

yeah its using all of the connections since my upload is only maxed at 60kb/s and im doing about 200kb/s upload

... im on shaw cable at my house, just shaw, and plugged into my router, on an hot torrent i get dual 1mbs(for 10 mins once had 2mbs)+ up and down, so thats sorta quick for wireless alone but u said you are also on a lan line right?

...?

Which upload is only maxxed at 60kb/s?

How do you know all 200kb/s isn't going through one of the wireless connections?

lilaznviper 04-28-2009 07:05 PM

its not hard to check which internet connection they have

InvisibleSoul 04-28-2009 07:21 PM

Don't think that answers my question...

i said my upload is maxed out at 60kb/s

i went onto each network and saw how fast they where and none of them went at 200kb/s

InvisibleSoul 04-29-2009 12:20 AM

I really have doubts that it's actually doing what you think it's doing.

I couldn't find anything about Vista being able to automatically load balance multiple Internet connections.
