Multiple async modems can speed things up because you could
open different sockets or sessions on each. However, the
bandwidth will not go up very much. For that you will need
synchronous communications where the data bits can be split
among the different channels and reassembled at the other end.
ISDN, and the sync protocols like T-1 will do this. Regular
store-shelf modems will not.
