I had dual ISDN from nynex in the 90s. 128k woohoo! It cost me $500+/mth. j
I still have 128k ISDN in one site in rural TN, and it's the POP for my WISP! I'd spring for a whopping 256k, but I can't justify the cost. Been running on my remaining stack of P75s for years, still have about 30 left for the lightning to kill. When it rains, it drops, and fails to a 56k modem that trains at about 19k. Just try and get the RBOC Bell (the new SBC *sigh*) to fix that. Oh and it also drops randomly, finally got me an X10 appliance module and stuck it on the router, and rigged up some nagios scripting. Nothing so reliable as an auto-rebooting router. It's the only option besides Satelite, which isn't really an option, or maybe a gold plated (price) T1 due to the distance. Squid makes it almost tolerable, until someone needs their windows updates... -Blake
