Default Network Load Balancing


I have dual NICs in my Vista Pc but Vista does not use both. It will
switch between but I can't find a way to get Vista to balance network
traffic across the two NICs. Any ideas

Are you connecting to one network, or two? If it's one network then does
your switch support interface teaming? And does the NIC driver?

Nothing will 'automagically' use two connections for 'more' connectivity.

Hi
Load Balancing with two NICs need special equipment, it can be done with
regular Clint OS in Home environment.
Vista as well as other client OS' are sold to Business and Enterprise too.
In their hardware/software environment some extra Network configuration are
available.
