Using a firewire and 10/100 ethernet adapter at the same time

[L337Llama]

I was it a LAN party, and one of my friends mentioned being able to use a firewire ethernet adapter and a 10/100 ethernet adapter at the same time and increasing the amount of bandwidth going to your computer. I was wondering if I could find out more about how that works and what to do to set something like that up...

I would just stick with the ethernet, or switch to firewire. Depending on the speed of the firewire, it will generally be faster than your 10/100. Really, if you do the math, it's not going to really speed anything up unless you do a mesh network of firewire. It will of course speed up the connection from your system to the one you are connected to, but everything else is most likely capped at 100Mbps. Maybe a gigabit LAN is what you are really wanting to persue.
