How to Combine Two Internet Connections

Method 1 of 4:

Using Speedify on Windows and Mac

Connect to your primary internet connection. If you are using a wired connection, connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on your computer to an open LAN port on your modem or router. If you are using a Wi-Fi connection, click the Wi-Fi icon (the icon with three arching lines) on the right side in the menu bar on Mac, or taskbar on Windows. Then select your Wi-Fi network and enter your wireless passkey.
Connect a secondary internet connection. If you are connecting a wired and wireless connection, you can easily do so by connecting to your Wi-Fi network and then connecting to your computer using an Ethernet port on your computer. However, if you are connecting two wired or two wireless connections, or your computer doesn't have an Ethernet port, you will likely need to purchase a USB Ethernet adapter to connect a second Ethernet cable or a wireless USB adapter to connect to a second Wi-Fi connection.
1. If you are using a Mac, you will need to install additional drivers to be able to use a wireless USB adapter.^{[1] X Research source} Make sure the adapter you purchase is compatible with MacOS. You will not be able to use a USB ethernet adapter. ^{[2] X Research source}

Method 3 of 4:

Using a Load-Balancing Router

Purchase a load-balancing router. A load-balancing router combines all of your Internet connections into one massive broadcast. You can connect multiple modems with different wireless networks to your load-balancing router in order to process all of the modems' connections.
1. A two-connection load-balancing router will cost you between $40 and $90.
Connect any modems to your router. If you have two or more wireless networks broadcasting from separate modems, you can connect them to your load-balancing router by attaching one end of an Ethernet cable to the square "Internet" port on your selected modem and then connecting the other end to a square port on the back of your router.
Open the router's configuration page on your computer. You'll do this by entering the IP address for your usual network, which can be found in your connection settings.
1. If connecting to the IP address in your computer's connection settings doesn't lead you to the router's configuration page, check the "Basic Setup" section of your router's manual for the proper address.
Click Advanced. You'll usually find this tab on the left side of the router's page.
1. Although most load-balancing routers have similar pages, you may see slightly different options in different locations depending on your load-balancing router's manufacturer.
Click Load Balance. Again, you'll usually find this on the left side of the page.
Uncheck the "Enable Application Optimized Routing" box. You'll most likely find this box near the top of the page.
Uncheck the "Enable Bandwidth Based Balance Routing" box. Unchecking this box and the one before it will allow your load-balancing router to distribute your connected Wi-Fi networks in one single connection.^{[3] X Research source}
Click OK or Save. Your settings will be saved.
Enjoy your combined connections' speed. If you've completed your load-balancing router setup and your computer is currently connected to the load-balancing router's name in your Wi-Fi menu, you should notice a difference in your browsing speed.

Method 4 of 4:

Creating an Aggregate Connection on Mac

Ensure that you have two Ethernet ports. In order to combine two Internet connections on your Mac without using a special router, you'll need to use an Ethernet connection to each of the connections' routers. This means that your Mac must either have two Ethernet ports or the capability to house an Ethernet adapter:
1. If you have one Ethernet port and at least one USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) port, you can buy an Apple USB-C Ethernet adapter to fill in as the second Ethernet port.
2. If you have no Ethernet port and at least two USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) ports, you can buy two Apple USB-C Ethernet adapters to create the two Ethernet ports.
3. If you have only one USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) port and no Ethernet port, you can't combine two Internet connections via Ethernet. Try using a load-balancing router instead.
4. Since your Mac can only combine two connections which both use 802.3ad-compliant connections, you cannot use a USB 3.0 to Ethernet adapter.^{[4] X Research source}
Connect both routers to your Mac. Using an Ethernet cable for each of the two routers, plug one end of each cable into the "LAN" (or similar) port on the back of each router, then plug each of the cables into your Mac's Ethernet ports.
1. You must first connect the Ethernet adapter(s) to your Mac if you don't have more than one Ethernet port.
Open the Apple menu

. Click the Apple logo in the top-left corner of the screen. A drop-down menu will appear.
Click System Preferences…. It's near the top of the drop-down menu. Doing so opens the System Preferences window.
Click Network. You'll find this globe-shaped icon in the System Preferences window. Clicking it opens the Network window.
Click the gear-shaped "Action" icon. It's in the lower-left side of the window. A pop-up menu will appear.
Click Manage Virtual Interfaces…. This option is in the "Action" pop-up menu. A new window will open.
Click ＋. It's in the lower-left side of the new window. Clicking it prompts a drop-down menu.
Click New Link Aggregate…. This option is in the drop-down menu.
Select your Ethernet ports. Click the checkbox to the left of each of the Ethernet connections.
Enter a name. Type a name for your new connection into the text box at the top of the window.
Click Create, then click Apply. This will both create your combined Internet connection and connect to it. Your Mac should now automatically split things like download speed and streaming between the two connections.
