If you don't drop packets, UDP is the simplest solution. However, you will always lose a packet at some point, so you will need a reliable protocol. You can build one on top of UDP at the host level, or you can do your own wire protocol on Ethernet. SCTP has some support for multipath out of the box last time I looked.
