My server (using Ubuntu server 22.04 LTS) has a 100M wireless and wired network card, and I'm using it to run a website (pure IPv6).

Both NICs are currently connected to the same router, is it possible to combine their bandwidth?

Before this, I tried bonding and mptcp, but they both failed. There is very little information about them on the Internet, and each article says something different. Most of them only mention ipv4.

What I want to confirm is, is it due to my operating error, or is it simply impossible?

This is the current status of my NIC:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

My English is not good, so I use Google Translate, sorry.

    Even if this was possible could the router handle it?

  • @David Because the server is at my home and I'm using a home router, it doesn't seem to be able to do those more "advanced" operations :(

  • Seems you have answered your own question.

  • @David I was wondering if it is possible to handle this situation with just the server.

  • Bonding requires configuration on both ends, so it won't work if your router doesn't support configuring it. And typically bonding for bandwidth requires identical interfaces. You'd have better luck with multiple stream file transfer clients, but that won't work for a web server.
