We use up quite a bit of internet bandwidth. I would like to purchase a second dsl line and set up some sort of load balancing on a gentoo box as a router. Is there a simple way to do this?

Also, How can I set up iptables to reject all incoming connections on all ports by default?

I really appreciate the help. I've looked everywhere to try to figure out load balancing.
