i have two internet connections, the first one is a cable, and the
second one a adsl limited in traffic. how can i setup in a Rh9, a
gateway for outgoing traffic and another one for outgoing traffic . so
i can use my cable for downloads and the adsl for uploads.

AFAIK there's no way for a router to differentiate between FTP/HTTP uploads
or downloads (well, theoretically there's a way, but I don't know whether
any implementations exist).

Can't. The interface the far machine will send to is the one it got the
packet from, which is the "outgoing" one.

You could of course change your routing table befor each connection, so
that the default route to the far site went throughthe appropriate
connection. But that would be such a pain, you would not want to do it.

Or you could get two machines. Make the default route the cable on one,
and the adsl on the other and use the two appropriately.
