We are a 4 Star Hotel Property & are using WiJungle (UTM & Hotspot Gateway) to manage our network.
We have two different ISP links working on Active-Active mode of Load Balancing but I am looking to have combined speed of two different ISP links in the LAN network. How can it be achieved through this appliance?
 
It depends what you mean. You can use the total bandwidth by putting some users on one and other users on the other.

It is not really possible for a single machine to use the total bandwidth. This is a fundamental things on how network communications work. You have 2 different IP on your 2 different ISP so they are considered different end stations. Although you could try to run some sessions from a single machine on one and other session on the other it tends to be not simple to do. The common example most people on this forum understand is a online game. You have a session to the login server and a second session to the actual world servers. If these come from different IP addresses the game company gets confused and in most cases figures you are hacking so disconnects the session.

This also happens say when you are on a online store and then move to the payment server which maybe a different web site. The IP address is part of the security.

There is really no appliance that can figure out all these things on the internet.

The best you can hope for is to run some users on one connection and other users on the other. That way all the traffic for single users always uses the same IP. It to a point load balances but it depends what the users are doing.
