bridging.... humm... i had an earlyer post over the same question topic here... trying find it... will give u the link...

as the search option isnt working here.... so couldnt find it now...

well the gist was that ur ISP must support that option.... what it was called.... hummm bridging or multitasking... i dont remmerber it right.... as i found out that only ISDN supports that.....

so gave up my hope to running my TATA CDMA with reliance CDMA.... but wait other users will give u many use full information....

Hi,

You cannot combine the bandwidth of a DSL connection and a dial-up one. However, on certain dial-up connections (which has to be supported by the ISP), you can combine multiple dial-up connections -- called multilinking.

In India, you only have that option with ISDN dial-up (and this is supported everywhere you have ISDN), provided you sign up for a 128-kbps connection and use both channel A and B (A & B get multi-linked when using both lines).
