If it was the same ISP you could maybe look at bonding the links.

Not perhaps as you expect.
I seem to recall this has been asked in 24HSHD
http://groups.google.com/group/24hou...elpdesk/topics
before.
What you are asking is if you are using 1 application on 1 PC it will
automagically figure out there are 2 ISP links and request part of the
download across 1 link and the rest on the other.
Can you see how that works?

A router would allow the ability to direct request across say the 2G
link, and in case that ISP links goes down it would use the other as a
backup.
Most likely to do as you want you would need a smart proxy, load
balancer. Your PC makes 1 request to the smart box and it does the
clever bit. However it's still unusual to want part of a file from
location A and the rest from B and then join them together.
See the URL above there was a box mentioned before, in 1 of my posts.
This is why at work we have server clusters, multiple network
connections, online fail over switches and routers and the very
expensive application / web load balancers.
