Cellular carriers need come down off their high horses. Prices on cellular data plans are just insane. ]]>Jun 30th 2009 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jun 30th 2009 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jun 30th 2009 4:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jun 30th 2009 4:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jun 30th 2009 4:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jun 30th 2009 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/
We get INCREDIBLE download speeds and file transfers but less than impressive upload speed via TCP. Its an issue that they are working on very hard. The biggest benefit to something like this is for tradeshows. Those bastards will rape you for $1,000 a day for a decent connection. We have bandwidth to spare on our own WiFi now, run skype, live broadcast, make sales, play videos etc etc while our competition spends more for internet in one day than we spend for 4 months.]]>Jun 30th 2009 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/
Also, I recommend checking out the Truffle, also by Mushroom Networks if this device is interesting to you. It allows the use of Ethernet handoffs in combination with cellular signals.

Also, check out companies like Fatpipe and XRoads Networks as they are also in this game and Fatpipe in particular is much further along in developing their product.

Also, remember, all of these devices are basically linux PC's with complex IP tables running and a web interface. Not exactly good for anyplace mission critical.]]>Jun 30th 2009 4:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/

but i was curious.. is there such a solution like this for wifi, short of building a custom linux box of your own? my friend's appartment has 5 open wifi points within range, and it would be nice to harvest all of the connections and, y'know.. eventually take over the world, and what not.

in theory.]]>Jun 30th 2009 4:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/

How about these companies provide easy solutions to fix the US's crappy speeds first THEN introduce devices like this to the US market.

(I say this only because Mushroom Networks is a US based company so you euro people don't call me geocentric) ]]>Jun 30th 2009 4:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.viprinet.com/en/products/multichannel-vpn-router
They have up to six builtin, hotswap modems.

I use the small Viprinet 300 router in my car with three 3G connections to be always hooked up to my home and i am able to stream live music and video from my home into the car's entertainment system.
Works like a charm.

Might as well harass some DOCSIS 3.0 users by mocking their bandwidth wirelessly while you're at it.]]>Jun 30th 2009 6:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jun 30th 2009 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jul 1st 2009 10:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Jul 1st 2009 9:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/30/mushroom-networks-announces-new-wireless-broadband-bonding-tec/Oct 1st 2009 9:43PM
