multiplexing my connection to achieve better speed.

First of all, good luck.  And write a HowTo once you are done :-)


I will.
/dev/usb/ttyUSB0 and server2 through /dev/usb/ttyUSB1. Does anyone have
any idea how I can run two pppd daemons in parallel?  Or can one pppd
support two modems simultaneously?

You can pass the device name for the pppd.

BTW, can you charge your phone while it is connected to your computer?


Yes.  I am using LG RD 2130 on a USB interface.
