Description
ISDN ("Integrated Services Digital Networks", called RNIS in France)
is a special type of fully digital telephone service; it's mostly
used to connect to your Internet service provider (with SLIP or
PPP). The main advantage of ISDN is that the speed is higher than ordinary
modem/telephone connections, and that you can have voice
conversations while downloading stuff. It works only if your
computer is equipped with an ISDN card and both you and your service
provider purchased an ISDN line from the phone company. For
