Multiple modems work because the ISP can simply set a bonding option in radius.
One would think so, but we had connections through two different ISP's and Windows was able to "bond" them together into a single pipe for FTP. We were very surprised when we tried it and it just took off.
DSL is different and requires special modems at both ends of the connection.
Wouldn't surprise me if that were true, but also wouldn't surprise me if there were a software-workaround if you were running pppOe, just because I've seen it work with ppp before.
Still, I would speculate (as I chide others for doing) that the shared-bandwidth nature of DSL would probably make this less useful than discrete phone line ppp bonding.
