i dont fully understand your question, but yes you can have 2 modems in your pc, one that will work with linux and one with Windows 2000. If your mdoem works with linux, it will work with windows. The problem is getting a modem that will work with linux.

DONT buy a winmodem, coz it wont work !!

I take it that under Windows you are using the two modems at the same time to double your inetnet connection's speed yeah?

This is possible under Linux but I've never seen it done personally and will probably require you to recompile the kernel. I believe it's called "EQL" or "Serial line balancing"

cheers
