Using /two/ alcatel usb things? Gah! That sounds horrid! The ISP we use
at work offers us a 4 meg adsl connection by bonding two 2 meg adsl
links, and they include a box to do the trickery iirc.  I've tried using
squid to round robin requests between our two connections, but this
works really badly if one connection filters different URLs to the
other!

If anyone wants to try though this I do have two usb things doing nothing...
