Debian has supported multiple concurrent network cards and interfaces for a very long time. You could cable each to a separate ISP if you wish. Or all to the same if you have the bandwidth. This is sometimes called NIC teaming. On Wed, Oct 14, 2020, 4:48 AM Susmita/Rajib <bkpsusmi...@gmail.com> wrote: > To, ... ... [snipped] ... ... [snipped] ... ... Dear Dr. Geovanis, Nicholas Geovanis <nickgeova...@gmail.com>, I am surprised at your revelations. I have been trying to have a breakthrough, but have been failing. My need is a little divergant from NIC teaming from what little I understood after reading on the topic, after your inputs: We have multiple USB ports in our laptops/dektops, and smartphones with USB ports and opportunity for USB tethering and internet access from the smartphone's mobile Network provider using SIM cards. I wish to use two ISPs, i.e., two snartphones in USB teethering, and combine internet bandwidth from each of the two simultaneously. I hope that I have been able to explain myself in my post. Regards, Rajib Bandopadhyay A Debian and Knoppix user P.S.:: BTW, because of the typo "has" I have requested the List Moderator/administrator to delete the subject thread and keep the post corrected with "have".
