How to make my MBP use 2 internet connections?

I have the airport connected to my home internet connection and have a pc sharing an ethernet connection on a seperate dlsl/network.

I have both sucessfully connected and am downloading Lion right now, its download but I want to know if its utilizing both connections speeds so this download will finish 😀

If it isn't using both I'd like to kno a way to utilize both at the same time, if possible 😉

THANKS ahead of time guys!!!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

I have never heard of anyone combining the power of two seperate internet connections to make their computer faster on the internet. Frankly, I don't think it's possible. Lion is a large download, it may take awhile.

I know for sure that windows 7 has this feature so I thought apple would at least meet or outdo hahah but apperently not 😟

Alright one last thing, If I apuse the lion download and shutdown can I later resume from where I left off?

Apple might have the feature, I have just never heard of it. And no, if you shutdown during download you will need to start all over again. Stick it out and maybe some other users that have heard of/or know a way about your internet question will respond here. Just because if I have never heard of it, doesn't mean it's not possible, it just means I do not know of any way of doing so 🙂
