Re: (ASCEND) POTS bonding

           So one would install an ISDN line and purchase a Pipeline
           75 so that I can then buy something like a shotgun modem to
           run on top of that?  Hmmm.  Well I suppose if you wanted to
           use your ISDN for work and your Shotgun 112kbps modem to
           get to your ISP this might work.  You're limited with the
           Pipeline to selecting NAT to work with one profile.  So
           perhaps that
           might have some merit.  Seems like a pretty pricey
           solution.  But then if your ISP doesn't offer ISDN but your
           work
           does (or vice versa) - maybe.

           If you are scared of ISDN you could connect using two
           modems (56K ea) and get a bonded rate of 112K. I've heard
           this works between non-similar devices also, like one ISDN
           and one POTS modem... But I would imagine that would cause
           problems as frames outgoing on the ISDN would arrive before
           the frames on the POTS line.
