SBS doesn't have this capability (TTBOMK). You might just need to get a dual
WAN router... there are many available (like Linksys RV082). Depending on
the custom app you could create filters that apply to one connection or the
other. These routers can either work increasing the total bandwidth or
having one line as a fail-over.
