Hi,
I have read that the tulip ethernet cards could do that type of aggregation but
only if the box on the other side can do it.
See the kernel docs.

#->> Hi,

#->> The teql is an internal routing scheduling equalizer. It is the same a eql
#->> loadbalancing on serial link. The max speed you optain is not the
#->bandwidth
#->> sum a download transfer from the internal will have the max speed of one
#->> link not a fully link aggregation. This method is similar to CISCO one

#->>
#->> The only problems with it is the setup in WAN env because we do not have
#->> end to end verification (for link loose).
#->>
#->> In fact the stability of the line cluster will depend on the ISP quality

#->> Hope it will help,
