You can connect your parents' house to yours by using the same ISP lines. Check hardware and settings to ensure compatibility.

Your aim is to achieve something specific, though you can accomplish it with modern routers. The reason behind it remains unclear.

the plan is to connect my NAS so my parents can reach it. at the ISP I can quickly link both homes once the fiber arrives. they’re on the same side of the street, so they’ll need to finish their tasks beforehand.

Are you seeking a connection that provides bandwidth across both links? Or are you aiming for backup so that even if one link fails, both connections remain active? For bonding, it's feasible but unclear why you'd need it. Most servers can't support a single gigabit line, making it unnecessary to combine them into a 2gbit link—other constraints will always exist between you and the content providers. For redundancy, it's also viable, especially if you're in close proximity and can link lines together. This ensures protection against physical damage to one line, as both would be affected if the local connection or ISP experiences problems. Still, this approach often feels redundant.

Connect the NAS to both networks via Ethernet. Include a second NIC if necessary. The NAS does not require linking to the external network of either home.

Set up two networks on the NAS. Use one device with a different network than the other, ensuring both can reach the server.
