One thing to be aware of is that when they re-purpose T1 and ISDN equipment for "DSL" in this way, they are limited in what you can do with it. Typically, it will be either 144 kilobit/sec or 1544 kilobit/sec, symmetric (the data rates of ISDN and DS1 without the channelizing overhead). So if you're hoping for one of those nifty 5M/768K asymmetric circuits, you'll still be out-of-luck. On the other hand, 1.5M still beats 56K. :) > Fairpoint "does that" - hopefully the sale will go through. It's a truism that all telcos suck. But I have yet to encounter one that sucks more than Verizon. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
