By second loggin in, do you mean via an additional TCP connection or a
second telnet session? A bundled/bonded connection would be better. THe
zyxel will add and drop the second channel on demand if you use something
like this:
atja48js32 OK
atkas2kss5 OK
This adds a second channel if the bandwidth is over 48Kbs for more than 2
seconds and drops the second channel if the bandwidth is under 32Kbs for
more than 5 seconds. It works quite well. It might prove satisfactory
for your ISP if they know that you will ask for the second dial in only
when your bandwidth demands it.

Be sure that you have asked them right question, you don't have to log in
more than once to get the bandwidth, I would try it anyway, they may not
be able to tell. 8-)

THis works. One serial port gets one of the B channels on the ISDN line
and the other serial port gets the other B channel of the ISDN line. The
curent leve of firmware will let you assign the specific B channels if
desired.

Probably these won't help at all.

You will likely find this less than satisfactory if you don't have many
connections simultaneously.
