■Add second B channel as required: When selected, the second B channel is added when the first B channel reaches a certain threshold. The threshold default is 60%.

■Use two B channels: When selected, both B channels are used to connect to this service provider (that is, always use Multilink PPP). Note that this prevents another call, data or voice to be placed or received as there is no available bandwidth (that is, the second B channel cannot be temporarily removed).

Leave the B channel rate set to 64 Kbps unless your telephone company and the locations to which you will be connecting require 56 Kbps.
TollMizer makes a 56 Kbps data call over a voice circuit, allowing you to save the typical cost difference between a voice and data call. Note that the destination you are calling must also support this feature (also referred to as Switched 56 Permissive or Data Over Voice). Check with your telephone company and ISP to make sure that they support TollMizer.
