A single ISDN line has two 64K data channels, each with it's own phone number (SPID). It was those two channels I was referring to. I'm pretty sure all the Pipeline 50 support both channels for 128K total bandwidth. You can telnet to your pipeline and check the configuration, it should have two SPID slots. As for Multible ISDN lines, l'm not sure there would be a way to load balance them using the Pipeline 50's, since they grab the IP packets directly off ethernet. A solution with the internal cards might possible, since you could control directly which card gets which packet. James Robertson Treetop Internet Services
