Coexistence 56 K analog modem / ISDN modem
Hello,
my new PC (Windows XP) contains a 56 k internal PCI card modem. It works fine. No Problem. Trying to make the PC fit for ISDN communication I installed an additional ISDN PCI card. Now, I have problems getting conected via the 56 k analog modem. Is it possible to have both cards installed and use them alternately depending on the type of line? Or do I have to remove one or the other? Herb |

There's nothing basically wrong with having both POTS and ISDN adapters in the same system. (On a laptop you even have PC-Cards that support both :-) What could be happening: If you install an ISDN card, the installer software asumes that you will be running from ISDN. (Mostly the reason to install an ISDN card :-) If the installer software modifies your connection data to use the ISDN card for default internet access it is no wonder if you observe problems using your modem afterwards. You probably have to create 2 different dial-in profiles and run the internet connection wizard after switching connection type. -- Kind regards, Gerard Bok |

There is not a problem using different devices for different purposes, e.g. I use a dial-up modem for FAX, and DSL for internet access. Using both devices for internet access could involve conflicts in binding with your TCP/IP port. "H.Henkler" wrote: Hello, my new PC (Windows XP) contains a 56 k internal PCI card modem.
