network adapter twinning

L

Leon

I have a laptop that has a built-in wireless. I also have a PCMCIA wireless
card and a wired 100BaseT Ethernet connection. I'd like to be able to
combine all 3 (OK, 2 will be fine as well) adapters and make them appear as
one network connection to Windows XP. The reason I think this ought to work
is my experience with multiple Intel network adapters in some of my other
machines. I have Intel network adapters on some of my other machines. Using
software provided by Intel I was able to "twin" multiple adapters in to an
adapter group to get both fail-over capability and a greater combined
throughput rate. In my laptop, however, all 3 network connections are by
different manufacturers so I was hoping for a Windows XP (as opposed to a
hardware vendor) solution. Any suggestions on how this can be done?

Nope. Waste of time and if it were possible, probably a waste of processor
for your laptop.
