This is more of a general ISP question (doesn't have anything to do with
FreeBSD), in the future you might want to ask this on a more general list,
such as:

IAP@VMA.CC.ND.EDU..

I think the listserver is at listserv@vma.cc.nd.edu.

To answer your question.. Take a very quick look at uhf.wireless.net
DO IT NOW, because I'll be changing the DNS in a few hours - uhf and I are
moving to Dallas and wireless.wdc.net will be taking over uhf.wireless.net
services, so if I update the DNS it will only point to it's new
(temporary) home.

Do: nslookup, set type=any, uhf.wireless.net), and you'll see that uhf is
using two addresses from two different ISPs.. This is through a private
tunneling arrangement and works fine..  Under FreeBSD telnet, it even
works so well that when one address times out or is unreachable it goes to
the other ip address.
