Ethernet Port Aggregation

Ethernet aggregation lets you use the LAN 1 and 2 ports on your cable modem to
improve the aggregated transfer speed. Note that Ethernet port aggregation is also
referred to as link aggregation, teaming port, and port trunking. If a router or computer
supports Ethernet aggregation, you can connect your router or computer to the LAN 1
and 2 ports on your cable modem.
