Abstract
A remote network server includes primary and secondary routers, each of which include means for emulating a number of different modem types, and for operating in accordance with a number of different communication protocols. Incoming calls are directed at the primary router, but are routed through the secondary router if either the type of modem making a call cannot be emulated in the primary router or if the primary router cannot operate with the protocol used by this calling modem.
