More upload speed

Upload bonding requires a device at your side to route IP packet up alternate lines. Typically a FireBrick can do this, as well as provide fallback (not using a line that is down) and firewalling. AAISP staff can also configure the Firebrick for your lines for a nominal fee.

There are other devices that can do this, some of the Mikrotik range of routers can do this.

Linux is capable of doing both basic upload bonding by multipath routing. It can also do sophisticated upload bonding using a combination of policy routing and firewall rules.

See Category:Bonding Configuration for example configurations for various routers.
