example, 1-800-555-1212), even for local calls.
Note that you must use Multilink PPP to make calls using two ISDN
B channels. For information.
see the “Using Multilink PPP” section

If you are using Windows 95, you need to install a modem driver for
your ISDN modem before you can place calls. Follow the
instructions below to install the Windows 95 modem driver.
Note: The serial por t speed of most PCs limits the computer’s
maximum data transmission rate. Typically, PCs are limited to a
maximum transmission speed of 115.2 Kbps. However, advanced
serial cards and drivers are available to boost the serial por t speed
up to 230.4 Kbps. (For more information,
see the “Optimizing serial
por t per formance” section on page 6-9. )
