Using two ISPs -------------- first add a new routing table: edit /etc/iproute2/rt_tables add the following line: (rt2 for routing table 2) 1 rt2 computer is already setup to use wired linksys router at 192.168.0.1 so we are adding ability to use a 2nd ISP wifi device is wlp2s6 bell router uses 192.168.2.1 computer uses 192.168.2.17 sudo ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 dev wlp2s6 src 192.168.2.17 table rt2 sudo ip route add default via 192.168.2.1 dev wlp2s6 table rt2 sudo ip rule add from 192.168.2.17/32 table rt2 sudo ip rule add to 192.168.2.17/32 table rt2 so this computer now has two ip addresses: 192.168.0.103 for wired linksys connection 192.168.2.17 for wifi bell connection testing ------- we can now specify which ip address (and ISP) used by wget wget --bind-address=192.168.2.17 https://archive.org/download/cubexyz_gmail_C64/c64.ogv wget --bind-address=192.168.0.103 https://archive.org/download/cubexyz_gmail_C64/c64.ogv
