dn0 Posted April 9, 2006 CID Share Posted April 9, 2006 Do you have 2 separate phone lines to your home with 2 separate phone numbers? Or do you mean that you have 2 phone jacks or outlets. If you only have 1 phone number, then you can't use 2 modems (as far as I know, anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted April 9, 2006 CID Share Posted April 9, 2006 t1wireless first off who is your ISP?, because most dial-up providers don't allow modem bonding, unless you pay for 2 services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cholla Posted April 9, 2006 CID Share Posted April 9, 2006 I don't have much to add to dn0 or dlewis23's post.If you can get it DSL is usually cheaper than modem bonding .If dial-up is all you can get then this is the only way to increase speed.There has been a topic or two about this.If you do decide that you have a phone system capable of trying it then I will see if I can find these topics at testmy. & more info elsewhere.I haven't tried it myself but I have researched it .You definatly need to check with your ISP to see if they support modem bonding.Even then there are a couple of ways they do it.One can be very expensive because they charge you by the minute for the second account.
