Sify Broadband Sucks

[shouvik]

if u cared to read that tutorial, u would have understood then

Man I was so darn late in this thread. A bit off topic here, did sify officer start crying or something because he can't prove his point. Another off topic suggestion. If any of you guys are living in delhi, I'm thinking of starting a wi-fi network so we all can share our internet connection. That means, hotwire, mtnl, airtel and all the others combined. It could well go over 1mbps. Tell me what ya think?

And then one of you would do something illegeal and all of you cud go to jail for it.

why would it be illegal? i can take 5 different connections, combine them and make a wifi. use it on my multiple computers. what is illegal in this?

 

[inetbum]

If I remember it correctly Wi-Fi is allowed within private premises in India only as per laws as of yet, and Wi-Fi has a range of 100 metres (which could be extended by some factors by using repeating antennas I guess). So how would you roll this out in Delhi ?

 

[Suraj]

its got to be expensive unless you are implementing it in a small area.Costs are the only barrier here.Do it privately, don't go beyond your locality, u never know.Once the "powers to be" gets a whiff of it, you never know whatz gonna happen.

Dude, this is impossible. TCP/IP wont allow it

their is something called bridging and something called masquarading. u wont get a single stream of 1 mbps. but if ur doing multiple downlaoding task, it would use multuple sources to give u faster speeds. so for a lan or a wifi network. it would be just fine!

This sort of things are not possible on tcp/ip. it is by design and not a flaw. Bridging is something completely different. Its used to connect to segments of two networks which you are not doing here. Masquarading is where you create a lan with private ips (eg. 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2...) and assign a single gateway which has a public IP. All the comps in the private LAN are able to access the internet even though they dont have public IPs. What you want to do is load balancing. But that is possible in a homogenous network environment while what you have is a varied heterogenous network environment.
