GL+There are many ISPs using devices capable of hosting an x2 connection, I 
use
  +one.  While the term "modem" may be technically incorrect,
  +it's still widely used within the industry to describe the
  +device (in my ISPs case USR Total Control racks).  Bob J.
  +and several others use USR I-Modems to provide x2 host
  +connections.  As I understand it, both the TC and I-modem
  +can be upgraded to V.90.  Yes, the host side must be a
  +digital connection, most of us realize that.  Yes, the
  +traditional "modem" hooks to an analog line (analogue for
  +Rick C.) and can't host an x2 session, most of us know that
  +as well.  I think you're "splitting hairs" with the above
  +statement.
I know but I got in trouble assuming that since he said modem and he 
meant modem.
