Yeah, I was just thinking that it sounds like Metro Ethernet. That's what we have and it's great. The charges are less than they were when we had a T1 and we have more bandwidth (full 2 Mbit/sec at this point - can order more, of course! J)

Regardless of the terminology, I would make darn sure your segment is sonet (loop-fed\ring topology\whatever) protected and it's a dedicated 5Mbps, not some oversubscribed shared connection to the POP.

I have a very compelling offer for internet bandwidth from a local provider (Cavalier Telephone) for 5 Mbps with an SLA. It would halve my current charges from Level (3).
