Thanks for the info, I have 2 Bitsurfers Pro
and I just tried it with a internal and external
US Robotics 33.6 on one of my servers. I had
Mulitlink enabled but they didn't bond. In the latest
issue of PC Computing (I think) they went into it
a little bit..but some of the screen shots left me
wondering if there is a DUN update for NT. Maybe
I was looking at the shots for 95.

They also stated it was possible with TA's, analog
modem, Frame Relay to and match and their connection
speeds would bond. No luck so far.

So with a high speed serial card and 2 Bitsurfers
you don't think it is possible to make Multilink
work? What hardware setup do you think will.

Thanks!
