A different server is easy to do - especially if they both use PPP. YOu need a
startnet script for each one, Startnet and Startnet2 are easy to remember
names. Startnet2 could be for your second service.

You'll need separate device configurations. If your current is using
ppp0.config, make the second one ppp1.config and change the online line in
Startnet2 to 'online devs:networks/ppp.device 1', then change all the
$ppp0IP... variables to $ppp1IP...

Now, you'll need to change ppp1.config to match your second provider's stuff.
You'll want another dialer-script if you are already using one also.

There's not much to it. I don't know anything about your current provider or
your new provider, so I can't make any definate statements about what to
change. But, I can say that you can set AmiTCP up for many different
providers.
