RE: Min connection speeds....
We generally allocated 4k per user in a remote office over a direct WAN link.

Both sites have DSL connections... The users over there have issues with the speed of the server - which is obviously directly linked to the speed of the DSL lines. My options are: Increase the speed of the DSL lines, or drop an exchange server in their branch. If I drop a machine in there - due to the cost, I would have to take an existing desktop PC and build it into an exchange server (yuck!). What do you think the min. speed of the DSL lines should be at each site? We are a somewhat smaller company (45 here and the 20 in the other office), so Biz DSL packages are all that we can deal with right now. Thanks!

RE: Min connection speeds....
Your alternatives presume that it is the link speed itself that is causing your slowness. I wouldn't jump to that conclusion, or else you might find yourself going to the boss and requesting funds for an improvement that doesn't improve anything. ©2000 Ed Crowley MCSE+Internet MVP kcCC+I® Protecting the world from PSTs and Bricked Backups! -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dustin Krysak Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 10:14 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Min connection speeds Hi there I have a remote office of 20 users, and they are connected to us through a VPN, and they access the exchange server here.

DSL - You get what you pay for Ive got like 30 to 35 user in my FL loc (coming up to CT), plus all other apps (telnet, OL, Surfing..etc..) coming up a T1 Frame Relay pipe at 128K CIR (Was 64K). work's great..reliable..no over head for VPN if you want to calculate it I think OL to Exch requires like 5~6K per user recommened... -Original Message- From: Dustin Krysak [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 1:14 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Min connection speeds Hi there I have a remote office of 20 users, and they are connected to us through a VPN, and they access the exchange server here.
