Response to non-SI G-B (gotta stop meeting like this). Whyncha just sign up for a free trial on SI? Don't have to give an email address out publicly. just see 206.253.196.11 Anyway, responding to this Yahoo post: messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com Didn't mean to confuse the issues. T1's muxed for 24 VGEs (or 48-72 with Centrex/PBX oversubscription multiples) is not the same as being able to offer shared bandwidth data at greater than OC3 rates (~200Mbps). Muxing for voice gives you a 64kbs (uncompressed) virtual circuit which CAN be used for modest data at standard 53kbs rates. As you suggest however, using ATM over P-MP offers serious BW capabilities, and would be billed accordingly. The reference to the # of T1s in a 200Mbps P-MP connection was mainly to emphasize the size of this link. Data pricing models in the many hundreds of dollars per month that tech research groups like Strategis, Dataquest, IDC and Forward Concepts put out are monthly per line numbers for HBW access. Neither dedicated voice circuits nor muxed DS0 VGEs would fill this growing HBW access need. Steve
