I agree, one of my reasons for going with ISDN was that I didn't wan't
to tie the phone up when browsing. But I thought it would
occasionally be usefull to use 128K. I would have thought that they
(the ISPs) could at least give you one channel for free and charge for
the other. If you can't do 2x64K either ISDN will loose a lot of its
appeal. Seems strange that BT is trying to sell HomeHighway and yet
their own ISP can't support it, at least not in an advantageous way.
Oh well, I will just have to do big downloads overnight!
Cheers,
Chris
