Problem dialing two ISDN's at the sametime...

[LedZepRock]

Hello

We have a Cisco 2600 series, and it will need to make many ISDN connections. I am starting with just two, but I cant get them to share the ISDN connected to the router (3 ISDN at this point) Dialer1 connects and works 100% but Dialer2 always says this each time I try the connection...

2w4d: Di2 DDR: No free dialer - starting fast idle timer
2w4d: Di2 DDR: No free dialer - starting fast idle timer
2w4d: Di2 DDR: No free dialer - starting fast idle timer

Any pointers to where I am going wrong????

Thanks, Simon

From my point of view, is it better for you to create different dialer interface, and not only one.
One dialer interface for every ISDN line.

so are you talking about the "dialer-group 1" or the rotor group??

Also would that mean I would need 8 ISDN lines for 8 Clients??? cuz that is what I dont want...
