Right-click on the Dial-up Networking icon for your ISDN connection and select properties. Click the Configure button to bring up the BitSURFR properties window. Under the Connection tab, click the Advanced button. In that window, there is a box where you can enter the init string that is used before dialing. To use mlppp, enter: at&f1%a4=1 That should do it, but double-check in your manual since I'm just remembering this off the top of my head. It might be %a4=2, but I'm not sure. When you double-click the Dial-up Networking icon to start the connection, you'll need to manually edit the phone number. You need to specify a number for each channel, but Win95 doesn't let you do this in the Dialing Properties. The BitSURFR expects a dialing string like: atdt5551234&5551235 So before you start dialing, edit the displayed number to read: 5551234&5551235 If the place you are calling uses automatic rollover of the lines, so you only have one phone number to call, you can use the same number twice: 5551234&5551234 > Is the tcp extensions stuff supported by the bitsurfr mlppp?

The BitSURFR shouldn't care about the details of the data it's transmitting. In that regard, it's no different than a modem.
