As far as the tech goes: Google results suggest it's a suite of protocols and standards for delivering service using a variety of technologies (copper, two kinds of fiber), so I think "Ethernet in the First Mile" is too general to produce useful results for you. You'd want to know what type they're using, and prolly what brand. Also: In my experience, the company matters a lot more than the type of technology. The traditional telcos have incredibly robustly engineered technology, but their management is so inept/evil that it often sucks to be their customer. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
