Do you mean One ISDN card dialling two seperate ISPS at the same time? If so I wouldn't of thought you could do it. Like [HLnC]Jay-Dee said you can multilink using different phone numbers but the password and username will be the same for the ine dun connection so not much use. You tried setting up two duns on the same card and clicking on both? Doubt that would work either. I gotta ask... why?

[sirgaz]

have done it in win98se no probs just can't get into network properties in w2k to add another dial up adapter.

Slap me If I'm teaching granny to suck eggs but you just right click on my network places on the desktop and choose properties, or you mean something else?

[sirgaz]

does that get u to network properties, ie dial up adapters, tcp/ip adapter.
asking as not on w2k macine atm.

cheers

still v new to w2k

I'm not sure what you mean, Win2k is different to 98, it brings up a list of all your Dun connections and there associated properties along with any network cards, you can also make a new connection etc. Alternatively you can right click on my computer and choose manage, from there you can choose device manager and look at the physical properties of your ISDN ta.

[sirgaz]

not quite what i'm after.
looking for a way of adding another dial up adapter, as in win98.

in win 98 its under network properties along with tcp/ip adapter.

thanks

I know the window you mean in 98, it basically doesn't exist in Win2k in the same format. Not sure how you would add it in Win2k without it being here in front of me :)

[sirgaz]

is there any way of adding a second dial up adapter?

sirgaz

[Calzor Suzay]

The only way I can see you being able to do this to add another dial-up adapter via the add/remove hardware option in the control panel but you'll need a driver of some sorts for to add it.

[sirgaz]

thanks will try that



happy new year
