You may want to consider a DS3. In terms of access cost, the break even point is usually right around 8 DS1's. The only caveat is you will need a fiber connection to a LEC or CLEC to provide a connection. If you want to stay with the DS1 route, in addition to frame, you may want to consider ATM - IMA. That will bond everything into one nice 9mb connection, and will downspeed if a few DS1's go down.

Due to price, our options have been narrowed to AT&T and MCI. I have two questions: 1. Which technology is better for binding t1's: multi link frame relay (mci's) or load balancing (att's) 2. Which company has a better pop in Atlanta: mci or att? We are in the Chattanooga TN area and our current connection is 6 t1's through att but they will only bond 4 so they are split 4 and 2.
