Advice on using 2 Broadband lines on same network

Hi all

Slightly unusual request, but I figured that if any group of people would be able to help, it would be the Spiceworks community.

In our house we have just upgraded to a BT Broadband domestic FTTC line from a standard BT ADSL. This runs at at 72MBps up and 15MBps down. I am currently using the Home Hub 5 whilst the line stabilises and until I decided which, if any, other VDSL router I want to buy.

We run a Home Office, and this has an O2 Business Broadband ADSL line with a static IP for running mail/VPN etc. This runs at at 3.5MBps up and 0.4MBps down. This still has over 1 year on the contract left, so I am unable/unwilling to change this to another supplier.

Unfortunately O2 Business do not supply FTTC broadband, only FTTP for enterprise customers, so I am not able to upgrade this service.

What I would like to achieve is to keep the O2 business broadband line for mail and VPN access, but to utilise the extra speed of the home line in the Home Office during the day. We currently use a Draytek Vigor 2830N on the O2 broadband line, and I understand I may be able to do something with this using load-balancing? Alternatively someone might have a better way of doing this?

TIA

RIchard.
