You already posted about this, right?
With "TurboPPP" enabled and the dialup configured to call both numbers, chances
are the problem is exactly as the ISP stated- they are using individual BRIs
with standalone "client" type dialup networking devices (Pipeline 50 or the
like), as opposed to integrated "server" hardware.
Unless you happen to be lucky enough to get both channels on the same
device, you CANNOT get 128Kbps with this configuration. The solution is to
change to an ISP that has real ISDN hardware on their end that either uses
PRIs or allows calls to span multiple BRIs.
Call prospective providers and ask them about this exact problem. Providers
that use the Ascend MAX, Livingston PM2i or PM3, and Gandalf XPressway will
not have this problem.
