Is there a way to connect to multiple wireless sources at the same time? I remember a few years back I saw a fancy router which could merge two wired connections into one faster one by distributing the load across both lines. Is there a way to do the same thing with wireless networks (assuming there are several networks available which are based off of different sources). Just to be clear, I am not talking about putting up several wireless routers connected to the same source.

Do you mean multiple networks, each broadcasting a wireless signal, or one network broadcasting a wireless signal from multiple locations?

Several networks, each broadcasting a wireless signal. I saw Microsoft prototyping some kind of technology like this to allow for more stable wireless signals while driving.

Just trying to hop networks with a single NIC would be very, very cumbersome because you'd have to negotiate the connection each time, thereby causing lag.
