Data CLECs offer only dedicated access via IDSL or ADSL provisioning. No dial-up is required. IP address is permanently assigned. Subscriber connection to the Internet is always on. ISDN is a dial-up service. Each time a subscriber wishes to connect to the Internet he must dial into the ISP server & receive an IP address from which to send & receive packets over the Internet. The apparent issue is the ability to receive assignment IP address with which to communicate & the quality of the connection between the dial-in server & the POP. Dedicated subscribers do not have to do this every time they wish to communicate over the Internet; dial-up users do. The bottom line of my hypothesis (& I thought yours) is that as DSLs become more prevalent @ the ATM interface, traffic coming in via the dial-in server is going to have an increasingly difficult time getting attention & getting a quality connection. Dedicated traffic appears to be getting a priority. Going with a CLEC will place you among the dedicated group since that is all they offer -- at the present.
