2 modems, 1 network? Help?
We are broadcasting a shitload of cams on one business-plan cable account. Since we can't afford a T1 line to handle all of this and add more cams, our only option is to add a dsl line or another cable line.
My question: how do you maintain one network while using two or more modems/internet connections? Is there a product/hardware that does this for you? Hope someone here knows . . . . |

You need a router that does bridging.

I think Juicy D. Links is trying to say get more bandwidth...
If your maxing out your bandwidth and its not an issue of over usage on your computer resources... then I would suggest getting another cable or DSL line to another one of you servers... hooked up on your network... It is very possible to have two wan connections to a computer, however why ? .

And to add to my original post, presuming you have a client -> server model where your cams from your house go to a server and are rebroadcast there it's really just as simple as getting a 2nd internet connection and streaming some cams from that off a second PC to your server. However if you're running everything off one machine then my original suggestion of a bridging router still stands.

About to go to sleep so I haven't checked the link explaining bridging better to my feeble mind, but to answer the questions, yes: the feeds are streamed to a server which then rebroadcasts them. Right now there are ten or more cams being fed from five different machines and I want to keep all of those machines on the same network (so they can share files, etc.) but somehow use more than one internet connection (not wind up with two different networks with a few machines using one connection and a few using another).
Thanks for the links super & martinsc: looking forward to checking them out tomorrow and any other suggestions anyone might add. |

Look for a home/SOHO "router" that handles Load Balancing. That's the keyword you are looking for.

If you just want to bridge two cable / dsl modems this will work:

You can use an old 200MHz machine from your garage as a very nice Linux
router by booting it from a Coyote Linux floppy. Linux balances between internet connections by default without you having to do anything special, so you can just sitck the Linux router behind the modems.
