You know how impossible it is for any computer to share multiple internet connections in the way you describe?
Good luck trying to get it to work, I don't think anybody would be willing to devote time/effort into something that might not even be possible.

Dear loki,
I am myself a programmer, and i know tcp/ip very well (however i never got time to go into the details of bittorrent protocol).
If bittorrent uses socket (tcp/ip) to connect to a peer, then there is no reason to say that its impossible to use multiple internet connection.
(as far as i know.. all the download managers [DAP/FDM/IDM.....] uses tcp/ip sockets to connect to other end to download the data).
Using multiple internet connection is more difficult in existing http/ftp protocols (coz there is only one server and it maintains session too), but still someone has made a s/w to use multiple connection simultaneously (
http://www.octopusplus.com).
If you feel it is a huge task and if you are not willing to work on it, then its fine.. but please dont say that it is impossible.

What about private trackers or any trackers with passkey? Wouldn't this require another announce for second connection?

Dear Dayman,
As i said earlier, i have not much idea about bittorrent protocol.
I used to be very busy with my office schedule, so i cant say when and how much time i can get to research on it.
But if you can give me few links for the following then it would be great for me.
1) A very simple bittorrent implementation (may be command base).. but it should be compiliable and working.
2) Few simple and short tutorial to understand bittorrent protocol.
Thanks.

Sorry for the resurrection.
This is actually feasible. See:

Connectify recently made a new Kickstarter campaign that will auto-bound the interfaces.

Load-balancing would have to be done by the OS, which could be a mess if there's only a few connected peers/seeds.
It might be even harder to get private trackers to work with multi-WAN connection peers/seeds, because such peer/seeds would appear multiple times as different ips. (one for each WAN connection)

each ip would have its own clientID
the trackers would need to allow multiple clients per login,which they could do through there forums,with a users settings.
I don't see private trackers allowing this,and unless your out in the bush somewhere with a bunch of cells....what are you doing that you need this for? aside for geo work possibly. Your in the bush,why aren't you hunting/shooting something instead? you likely won't have reception any how,and most people in the bush if they are working use sat internet.
