About dialup in ISDN
 

Hello,

Well I am having some troublesome with an ISDN connection. I am not familiar with that but I am trying to figure things out.

As I have noticed in the network there is a modem (I think this is not very true about ISDN) and after a 16-port hub.

I think that hub is distibuting ip adresses automatically, right?

The network uses win2000 in general but I intend to use at first live CD like knoppix. My question is whether the ISDN modem dial's up at start up like a DSL modem.

I know that in p2p networks with DSL modem and router there is no problem with live CDs. Is it ok with ISDN?

Another problem is that I think only one channel works (B channel). HOw can I control the other one?

SO is there a site to find out more about ISDN in general.

Thanks for any help.

Seeing Fedora in your sig You might get an idea from this even though it is extremely old. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/l...de/ch-ppp.html

I would goto http://www.google.com/linux and search for ISDN. It is where I found this one.

I had ISDN along time ago and have forgotten much about it. Never used under Linux though. I used it under OS/2 Warp. I was using a 3com external. I can't remember how the dailer called Injoy2 in OS/2 handled it. I do remeber setting it up to bring on the second B channel after a period of heavy download speed. I was able to make use of the D channel with it as well. So I ended up with an 8k B channel, 8K B channel, and 2k D channel speed connection for 18k max.

OK Thanks I will try that!http://linuxquestions.cachefly.net/i...lies/smile.gif
