Angry WindowsXP and analog dual dialup?

Windows XP Pro, Asus CUSL2 board, 1GHz Pentium III, 256 SDRAM, 80GB HD, VooDoo 5, two Agree chipset soft modems, Norton Antivirus 2003, 3Com NIC, Ensoniq sound. This computer is setup as an Internet Gateway thru Internet Sharing.

Here is my problem. I have a dual analog dialup with my ISP that is a multilink connection. I can set WinXP to dial one modem and it does fine, usually connecting at 50+k. When I select "dial all devices" it does and connects anywhere from 101 to 104k, no problem. Here is the real problem. WinXP has a feature that is suppose to allow the second line to only be dialed when needed, aka, "dial on demand." My system will not do this! I have played with the second line dialup settings from 1% load for 30 seconds to 100% load for 5 minutes and IT WILL NOT DIAL UP THE SECOND LINE, unless, I go into properties and tell it to dial all devices, hangup and redial? I've posted this question to more groups (USENET and forums) than I can remember and no one has been able to give me a fix for this. I really want to use the "dial on demand" feature but it doesn't work, not only on that computer, but I've loaded Windows 2000, still didn't work. Tried in on another computer on my LAN, still didn't work. Changed to US Robotics 5610a modems, still didn't work. Any help here?
