Could someone take a look at my post (topic Hardware DIY/ Hardware Mods)

There is no such thing as a 2 gigabit fiber standard.

You are welcome to setup a dd-wrt build environment and pull down the IEEE 802.3ad bonding driver from Github

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/drivers/net/bonding

and attempt to compile it into dd-wrt. You will then need to configure dd-wrt to allow for a bonded WAN interface with 2 ethernet ports. And a bonded LAN interface with 2 ethernet ports.

Presumably your ISP router supports 802.3ad

a R6300v2 router does not have the CPU capability to handle 2Gbt however. I suggest you review the wiki entry on high speed data routing here:

https://forum.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Hardware#Flow_Acceleration.2CSFE_and_Cut-Through_Forwarding

You would be wiser to use a PC with a multiport ethernet card in it and a kernel with the bond driver already compiled into it. Assuming your ISP supports ethernet bonding on their gear at all.

My r7800 has bonding (but never tested)

Apart from that, the R7800 only has 2 CPU ports (1x WAN + 1LAN).
I don't see how 2Gbit should go through
