[NTLUG:Discuss] WVDial/Multiple Phone Numbers

[Stephen Davidson]

Hi Rob.

What is the syntax for multiple phone numbers for a single ISP?

[Dialer myISP]
Phone= phone1:phone2

OR is it;
[Dialer myISP]
Phone= phone1
Phone= phone2

Or is it something completely different?  There are NO examples anywhere that I could find!!!! :-(

Thanks,
Steve
