well for one, we'll be partnered with a new CLEC,
so our inter-office traffic can ride over their fiber ring,
(for much less cost than renting Bell copper)
and bandwidth wise there is no need for a DS3 yet,
but more that one DS1 is quite likely even just starting out.
We're not completely sure yet that we'll be able to
make it all work, as we're still trying to get engineering plans
from Bell to find out if our prospect sites are on real copper,
or fed from an SLC somewhere...
Is anyone else doing DSL with a TNT yet?
If so are you doing it in small towns where everything
is fed through a single wire center?
Our nightmares are that we'll have these boxes in a dozen COs (at least)
and wondering if management wise, it will be worth the hassle.
