Like he said...you can get yourself a Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL Router. You only need one main line cable hookup. You can connect about four different computers to that one router. You'll need cable to connect from the router to the computers.
My router I think cost about $80 at Best Buy, the 50ft cable cost about $30. Fairly inexpensive. |

Yeah those nexland toys are the shit! Playa, did you read all the features it has? Load balances, and if one connection dies it switches all traffic to the other one. Plus it actually supports THREE connections. You can hook a phone line into also, and if both broadband connections go down, you can connect to a dialup and it distributes that, so at least you have SOME connectivity until the broadbands come back online.
Definitely don't buy it direct though, shop around and you can find some great prices on it. I don't have one yet, but as soon as I move, my plan is to get one of those and 2 broadbands! Can't wait.  |

It will double his speed, assuming he's downloading two (or more) seperate files.
The cable modems themselves are capped, it's not the physical line to your house. So unless the cable company is oversold in that area, he'll be fine. DOCSIS spec basically allows for somewhere around 48mbit (too lazy to look it up) per segment for downstream. (a single modem in theory could do this, if it had the whole cable segment to itself) Either buy that thinger, or do the exact same thing with a cheapo linux box on some old pentium hardware and 3 NIC's. Pay your local high school linux geek $100 to set it up, and provide autofailover. If you have a dedicated box somewhere at a datacenter, and it's close by (latency wise) you could just tunnel both connections to it. Then you would be able to use the full speed of both for 1 download, (so you'd have 3mpbs downloads). Of course, the drawback to this is that you're using your dedicated boxes bandwidth too, and the added hops to get there. Lots of options.  -Phil |
