If I use 2,3 or 4 C Lines, Would this help prevent freezing?

[weedman]

I am currently using 1 C Line from a provider which works about 90% of the time (It freezes occasionally, but its not that bad). I am currently using MGCamd 1.35a (newcamd).

If I bought another Line from a different provider, and added this into my newcamd.list or cccamd.list (depending on the line).

Would this guarantee a freeze free picture?.. ie: If the first C Line failed to retrieve any data, would the second line automatically kick in?

Also can I use a newcamd line AND a ccline as a backup as mentioned above, If I use the newcamd line (newcamd.list) as my first line, and it failed to retrieve the data, would the second CC Line (cccamd.list) be used and kick in fast enough to retrieve the data.

So can I use multiple lines of different protocols to back each other up in case of failure, to help get as close to 100% freeze free picture as possible.

you can have multiple lines to backup the servers.

but it will not stop the freezing........unlesss you have a freezefree server in the first place.

instead of investing money on a number of lines...............better off paying slightly more maybe! and geeting a better server.

the first line would be the one your receiver would use, then any other would take over if it went down the others would also open channels that the first line did not have but if those did.

Cant go in to much detail. Also just watch out for breaking the forum rules card sharing talk is not allowed but can be discussed under certain conditions (for instance internal sharing). Talk of paying or using paid lines cannot be discussed.
