My first question is, are you able to multilink using a 56k connection with two different ISP's?

I do already have 2 lines, 2 accounts on seperate ISP's and an Internal PCI 56k USR modem. I've seen info saying to get a serial and USB modem, would I just be able to get another internal PCI modem and use it fine?

Any other relevent information is greatly appreciated.

as far as I know all you need is 2 modems (or one that supports multilinking), 2 phones lines and your ISP must support it. It should not make a difference with the modems.

Alright after doing some reading around on various sites it seems that yes it is possible to multilink on different ISP's even if they don't support it. In order to do this though you need to have some software to split the packets up and such to treat the connection as a 128k instead of 2x56. The program that keeps poping up is MidPoint, however the website is down and I can not find anywhere to download it. If anyone knows where I can get a copy of this program or of a program that is similiar I'd be very greatful.

Thank you.
