Lucius...the application that we have on Citrix supports several thousand users on a large pool of Servers. About 600 users are laptops users (sales related positions).

When they are in the office they connect across the WAN on a frame relay network speeds any where from 56kb to T1 depending on location and population of employees in that building.

When on the road they can dial in (regular phone lines) using 56kb modems. We are just starting with Cell phone connections with our current 56kb modems ...the cell phone is analog phone not digital.

All we did was order a connector cable to interface between the cell phone and the laptop modem...the cell phone network
only supports up to 14.4 speeds.

For digital cell phones you have to interface with a digital service and have approiate connections at the server site to support digital connections.

Citrix allows you to set the PC to use compression when dialing in.
This helps and is adequate for our application.

Total cost was $40 for the cable...we took the low budget option.
And at this time is only need by a few of the 600 users.

I believe we could get faster speeds if they were needed thru digital cell phones...but it would be more expensive.
