The software produced in this project provides a method of combining multiple Internet connections, prioritising throughput and resilience in the resultant aggregate connection.

The project was a success. I met all of the core success criteria, and many of the extended goals beyond that. This project has produced a piece of software that provides an interesting approach to combining Internet connections. The software is useful and has seen one real world deployment, and it's hoped that others will find it a useful tool in their circumstances.
Though this project provides an approach that can work very well in today's Internet, it's hoped that the modernisation of the Internet will make it largely redundant. At present, the solution presented in this dissertation provides a highly effective solution for combining Internet connections in the following circumstances: when a single flow needs to exceed the capacity of a single connection, when connections are unreliable and flows must be maintained, and when connections have unpredictable performance characteristics. In each of these cases, this solution can currently be implemented to provide benefits to an entire network. However, using this system involves forwarding packets, increasing latency and cost. Some further work will be presented that solves these problems in different ways.
