I have used dual wan routers that do this: While speed can go up, and bandwidth certainly does, the latency variance makes many games unplayable, and really throws some video and audio streaming apps for a loop.
I'd love to see a write up how well this does stuff that is sensitive to latency and changing network conditions, beyond simple web surfing.
- Morhaus 13y agoOne of the advantages of using a proxy is that you can configure it per app. For example, let's say I have 3 interfaces. Interfaces (1) and (2) are low-latency and interface (3) is high latency. I can start a proxy on localhost:1080 that redirects to interfaces (1), (2) and (3), and configure my download manager to use it. I can then start another proxy on localhost:1081 that redirects to interfaces (1) and (2), and configure my game client to use it.
