Hi there.
I'm looking for a way to use some kind of network load balancing.

I have 2 DSL connections, and I want to use one modem for some applications and the other modem for some other applications.

I dont want to manipulate the routing table manually.
(And it's not possible to split up between applications)

Has anyone bought / found a application managing this?

A long time ago you'd have to set the (modem) parameters for each software individually...a big PITA. Imagine with PnP the modem changes port/interrupt settings on the fly, all the software needs to be reset to work. Now software automatically uses the "default" internet connection settings.

Perhaps you can edit the registry settings for a piece of software to specify different IP proxy and gateway...
