    Two phone lines and two modems

    I am using WinXP and I have two phone lines and two modems. Can I connect to 2 different ISP-s and double my internet speed.
    I know how to connect with 2 modems to one ISP but how can I set 1st modem to dial one number and set 2nd to dial another number and to use different username and password than 1st

    So you want to spend $40 per month for two ISP's plus maybe another $40 per month for two phone lines for 100Kbits/sec speeds when you can spend $45 per month for 3,000Kbits/sec cable modem speeds?

    Where is the logic to this?

    even if cable/ADSL aren't available, you would be better off getting an ISDN solution, since just 1 64kbps ISDN line gets download rates almost twice what most normal 56kbps modems get.
