Do you have any other DSL options? I don't buy his latency sales pitch. If your IP flex T1 is pegged you are going to feel it more, IMHO. I have 2 data T1 lines bonded for about 50 users plus Exchange and our web sites. I pretty much have at least 1 of the T1s worth of bandwidth used throughout the business day. We are about ready to switch over to 10MB Ethernet.

From: Doug Rooney [mailto:d...@sonomatilemakers.com] Sent: Friday, November 20, 2009 11:43 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Slightly OT: Connection Hello, We are currently connected via DSL that I just tested at 2.4Mbps Down and 556Kbps up and we pay about $70 a month and we have a PRI for our phones. Well my AT&T rep is suggesting we convert the PRI to a IP Flex T1, our concern is the download speed going from 2.4Mbps to 1.5Mbps and some of that going to the phones. Anyone have any good info regarding this, how our users will be affected? We have about 30 users on this circuit. Thank You ~Doug Rooney Sonoma Tilemakers IT Manager 7750 Bell Rd.
