Default merge 2 isp

Hello,

I have two 2Mbit DSL lines for internet service, both of them are connected to the same dslam, same network and same gateway. Can I get 4Mbit (2Mbit+2Mbit) with load balancing?

Thank you, DutchDaemon. I'm a bit confused about this function "loadbalance" and "roundrobin". In [man=4]lagg[man] is written loadbalance = 'Balances outgoing traffic across the active ports'. Does loadbalance merge speed of two links isp or just balance traffic?

It's explained in more detail in the handbook: 31.6 Link Aggregation and Failover
