Actually my fiber connection has a smaller limit than the ADSL |
| 40 |
connection. I am trying to use the fiber connection for all activities |
| 41 |
except some torrent downloading for which I want to use my ADSL |
| 42 |
connection. |
| 43 |
Once I'm able to route through the ADSL gateway, it would be easy for |
| 44 |
me to setup another ip on eth0 on my machine on which transmission |
| 45 |
could listen. All traffic on that ip would be routed through ADSL and |
| 46 |
otherwise the fiber. |
