Anyone got any experience with this? Is it just a simple case of two ADSL enabled phone lines and a dual WAN router like this one;

or do you need ISP support etc too?

You'd need 2 modems on top of that router.

Does it really double the speed? As surely once you get to the exchange and lose the two lines you'd be stuck with the same bottlenecks as everyone else?

There's alot more to it than you think, it's not so much a case of getting 2 lines then bonding them, as you with have seperage IPs for each, you need to use an ISP that offers it as they will do the clever stuff on the ATM & PPP session to route the traffic correctly.
Easynet do etherstream where they bundle up to 8 lines.
I myself would just go for SDSL as ADSL Is still limited to crap upload speeds.

My main interest is better download speeds - coming from 622mbps uni connection to a 6mbps home connection is like going back to dialup, and I work from home and download a lot so to be honest I wouldnt mind paying £80 a month for twice the speed, especially when you take into account that that £80 includes all my HD films etc.
