<div>Legalities aside, isn't it fairly pointless to load-balance ADSL from one side?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Egress load-balancing from the tail end seems like more effort than it's worth. </div>

<div>IiNet and others, when they offer this service, bond the two links via a single NTU and at the DSLAM, creating a bidirectional aggregated link via MLPPP. </div>

</div>
<div>The same could be achieved via layer 3, but you'd need to use eBGP multi path on both ends (ISP and yours), which would require a half decent router or Quagga instance. </div>
