Connect to 2 ISP`s

Hi, I have a ISDN net connection (No broadband for me) and I have had to change my ISP but as my other ISP won`t let me cancel for a month I was wondering if there was a way to connect to 2 ISP`s at 64k each to give me a 128k connection. If I just connect the other ISP it just sits there idle no data transfer,

Thanks Doot

In general, it's not worth trying for a short period.

I have two connections now but I just switch back and forth via a script depending on if I want speed (cable modem) or lower latency and less packet loss (fractional T1).

I tried the Nexland Pro Turbo device that is supposed to autoswitch traffic to the two ISPs but it never worked well. Now it just sits on a shelf unused. Oh, and at best, it still didn't combine download speeds but it would pull some files via one connection, and other files via the other connection.

Oh ok thanks. Don`t think I`ll bother. But would have been good if it worked.
