I appreciate very much if also u can give me specific setup of the said problem.

Answer 1

Yes, but what you are describing makes things a little complicated. You should look at various software/hardware solutions that can handle ISP traffic and multiple network connections. The company that I work for has three concurrent providers. You may need to get a commercial firewall/packeteer package. You could build a firewall from Linux or FreeBSD.



On provider provides cheap high speed connections but it is not dependable (60M/sec). The second one is our primary DNS and for incoming traffic. It is 6M/sec and very dependable. The third one is redundancy for DNS and incoming traffic. (5M/sec)

Answer 2

Yes



You can have two ISP in one computer. Goto Internet Explorer, Tools--> Internet Options--> Connections (tab)--> Click Setup where you can setup internet connections.

Answer 3

If you want to connect to 2 different ISPs at the same time then you should have 2 modems and 2 phone lines. this is the most easy way.

The other one is you can have one DSL and for 2nd one you can have your other modem connected through different phone line.
