Rep Power: 0 | You probably would love to have a T1 or T3 at home, but more often than not, it's hard to justify the luxury. While in some places residential DSL service has reached T1 speeds but with a cap on the Giga Bytes downloaded, in too many others - like mine - residential Cable modem, ADSL and even fixed wireless services offer less-than-T1 speeds. In India providers of all three available broadband service types (cable, DSL, fixed) seem to have conspired to offer 256 Kbps as the fastest speed for unlimited download. We could rant about the price too, suffice to say we pay the same price for 256 Kbps for which a subscriber can get 1.5 Mbits ADSL in the U.S. Ziksa Digital Services and company based in Bangalore, India introduces the Bandwidth Multiplier which makes T1 speeds and beyond available to anyone who can afford it - even if the broadband offerings are limited in speed. These routers have the ability to "join" two broadband links - xDSL, Cable modem, Fixed Wireless, you name it - into a single seamless "big data pipe" shared by all the machines in your LAN. The devices don't even have to be of the same type, as any pair of broadband connections with Ethernet (RJ45) connectivity can be used, and even mixed for additional safety against service outages from a particular (Telco or Cable) infrastructure. While you won't be able to use the combined bandwidth with a single file download, any applications using multiple simultaneous connections will. The scenarios are many; you can use the combined bandwidth even if you have only one PC behind the router doing multiple downloads -when downloading a web page with graphics for example, when you use a "download accelerator", when you manually start downloading multiple files at once, or when you use a peer-to-peer file sharing program. For small businesses and others who want Internet access redundancy and improved speed, this is the perfect product. For more information on the product please visit Bandwidth Multiplier from Ziksa or email Sree Kumar (sree@ziksa.com). Last edited by Admin; 03-26-07 at 08:06 PM. |

Rep Power: 12 | Your claims of making different connections into one big data pipe are baseless. Any one who knows a bit of networking would know that you are lying.One cannot use two connections for a single task.Multiple connections for multiple tasks are possible using teaming softwares but then what have you got to offer which wasent possible previously? |

Rep Power: 0 | In the third para I have clearly stated that it is not for a single task but for multiple connections. This product is a dual wan router and wifi access point rolled into one. It also costs only Rs. 5000 which makes it quite a bargain for the features. |

Rep Power: 12 | How do you compare this Rs5000 product with opensource teaming softwares available free of cost? |

Rep Power: 0 | If you have a linux machine to spare. If you know how to configure linux. Setup iptables and routing options. Then, yes definitely. For a regular user who uses Windows and wants a no hassle dual/multi wan solution with a wireless access point then this is a far easier way to go. It is just a (1.1 x 5.1 x 5.7 in.) device weighing in at 300gms. |
