Sure! You can merge those connections into one network setup. There are options to balance traffic across the PC itself. The app Speedify is paid, but there are free alternatives you could try.

Are you looking for a quicker single link? Then prioritize speed—simplify and that’s the best path. For multiple transfers, usually your router handles it; consider a virtual router in a VM or assign apps to specific connections.

I currently have just two connections, as I’m switching between providers and haven’t fully canceled the previous one. For now, I’m trying to test whether it’s possible to achieve the desired setup. The aim is to have a single faster connection—ideally dedicated to streaming, music playback, or browser traffic, while keeping another for gaming purposes. This would help determine if a dual-NIC motherboard can support this on one PC.

Sorry, this message isn't compatible with Windows, particularly free or straightforward options. It's not possible to merge connections across multiple links, especially between different providers, unless you're using advanced SD-WAN solutions that cost tens of thousands of dollars and even then results are uncertain.

It seems like you're considering a practical approach. A load-balancing router would be necessary for this. I noticed Ubiquiti offers a model around £79 that handles this function. It's affordable since it doesn't require Wi-Fi, which makes sense.

It will still function by distributing connections rather than locking them down. It might not be perfect, but it should handle traffic effectively. I’d like to know if you can enable application-level load balancing or adjust traffic distribution based on link usage.

It works well for downloading games through the router, but it can be challenging to manage. I currently rely on Steam because it simplifies handling their IP address list so my router can distribute downloads across both connections. Since I don’t play online games myself, IP changes aren’t an issue. You can balance traffic easily, though this may lead to more captchas or security warnings if your IP shifts frequently. Online gaming might also face hiccups. Speedify steps in by pulling data from both links and merging them into one stream at the destination, which feels smooth. However, it could introduce delays for games because packets arrive out of order, requiring buffering before they’re combined.
