Thanks for the replies!
The "ppp multilink links minimum 2" worked like a charm but with the "isdn fast-rollover-delay 1" it still takes 30 seconds to bring the 2nd channel up.
I'll play with some more timers and post the result.
Thanks again,
Phil

As a side note, both channels on atlas550 will not come up at the same time due to hw limitation of the Atlas.
You have to add the command "isdn fast-rollover-delay 1" on the BRI to make it work.
You can find this on Adtran support pages...

use "ppp multilink links minimum 2" If will make both the channels up immedialty ....irrespective of load.

coming up. I changed the configuration in the Atlas550 and it is coming up now but it takes consistent 30 seconds to the 2nd channel to come up. I have used the Teltone2000 in the past and both channels used to come up together with the "dialer load-threshold 1 either". I changed the config to be as basic as it can be and it always takes 30 seconds for the 2nd channel to come up:
